The Y2K-Problem
The Y2K- Bug? There is no Y2K -Bug , because the year 2000 comes a little bit too late.
As an experienced reveller you might be aware of the existence of Thai-Mekong whisky.
You should also know that to drink Mekong when it's older than 3 months is a no-no.
That's why they print the day of production on the back of their label.
On this animated label you can read 22-06-41.
That means June, 22nd, in year 2541! Translated to western standards that means June 22nd 1998.
So it seems these folks are already beating western arrogance by more than 500 years!
Our super-duper year 2000 just marks an ordinary year 2543 on the futuristic Thai Buddhist time
schedule.
