Following the item about names for the year 2000 and the years coming after
it (Feedback, 8 June), computer
professionals whose job it is to fix the
problems with the rollover from 1999 to 2000 refer to it in typically
abbreviated fashion as Y2K, so maybe we’ll have Y2K, Y2K1, Y2K2, etc.
Perhaps I’ll stick with “two thousand and one”.
