29, and I rang in the new millennium in a server room waiting for the end of the world with my fellow propeller heads.

@SW-User Ha! Did you? I went to San Francisco and celebrated it at Coit Tower. I was 29 also!

Yeah. My company kept us all on high alert New Years Eve and New Years Day. Partying like it's 1999 conjures up bad memories.

That was one of the biggest hoaxes ever. Consulting firms cleaned up, certifying companies (and the government) Y2K ready. My entire extended family was harassing me, for over a year, to "clean" up their computers. I did.

@Northwest It was definitely a boom period for my industry, and of course, the bubble popped about 6 months after.

@Northwest Yep! That was MEEEE!
