Hi, thought you might be interested
in this translation from a Latin scroll
dated 2 B.C.
Are you still
working on the Y zero K problem?. This
change from BC to AD is still giving us a
lot of headaches and we haven't much time
left. I don't know how people will cope
with working the wrong way round . Having
been working happily downward forever,
now we have to start thinking upwards.
You would think that someone would have
thought of it earlier and not left it to
us to sort out at the last minute.
I spoke to
Caesar the other evening. He was
livid that Julius hadn't done something
about it when he was sorting out the
calendar. He said he could see why
Brutus turned nasty. We called in
Consultus, but he simply said that
continuing downwards using minus BC
won't work and as usual charged a fortune
for doing nothing useful. Surely we will
not have to throw out all our
hardware and start again?.
Macrohard will make yet another fortune
out of this I suppose.
The money
lenders are paranoid of course!.
They have been told to that all usury
rates will invert and they will have to
pay their clients to take out loans. It's
an ill wind....................... -.
As
for myself, I just can't see the sand in
an hourglass flowing upwards.
We've heard that there are three wise men
in the East who have been working on the
problem, unfortunately they won't arrive
until it's all over.
I
have heard that there are plans to stable
all the horses at midnight at the turn of
the year as there are fears that they
will stop and try to run backwards,
causing immense damage to chariots
and possible loss of life.
Some
say the world will cease to exist at the
moment of transition.
Anyway,
we are still continuing to work on this
blasted Y zero K problem. I will send a
parchment to you if anything further
develops .
If
have any ideas, please let me know
Yours
, Plutonius.
Thanks
to Elaine O'Hara
