[joke] Back in 1999 a very rich man who had made his fortune fixing the
Y2K bug got tired of it all and decided to have himself frozen so that
he could avoid the crisis. He paid to have himself thawed out 20 years
later, but the company went out of business. Nevertheless, he stayed
frozen until 9999 AD. On waking up, the conversation went like this:

Q: What year is it?
A: 9999

Q: Why did you wake me up?
A: Your records indicate you know COBOL and Y10K is almost here.
