Does anyone remember what actually went down during Y2K. It was the Pentagon, for 3 days.
Does anyone remember what happened worldwide during those 3 ‘invisible’ days?…..
Putin came to power.

RUSSIA
The next move
What little we know about Vladimir Putin suggests that he is more interested
in confrontation than reform
By David J. Kramer

Six months ago, nobody was mentioning Vladimir Putin as a possible prime
minister of Russia, let alone president. Six months ago, few people were
talking about Chechnya as the defining issue in Russian politics. Ten days
ago, virtually no one expected to wake up to the New Year’s Day news of Boris
Yeltsin’s resignation. Making predictions about Russia, in other words, is a
fool’s game.

It may not be wise, then, to virtually cede Russia’s presidential election in
March to Putin, as conventional wisdom seems already to have done. But, for
the moment, it’s hard to imagine any other political figure in Russia -
including the top challenger, Yevgeny Primakov – being able to unseat Putin,
whose ratings hover around 70 percent support.”
