Comment: 

As of April 30, 1997, the largest phone company in Britain, Brtish Telecommunications plc, has formed a committee -- no, an Executive Committee -- to look into the y2k problem.

BT has also established a Year 2000 management team. This team is "dedicated."

BT has contacted supppliers.

BT has begun a study of details.

BT will soon "produce detailed work plans."

BT will manage a program to meet a deadline: (you guessed it) December 1998.

BT will file reports.

Of course, there is also a simultaneous massive EMU currency change for all of Europe's business computers. But . . . Well, there is no "but." There it is.
