From the Author
No one knows what the year 2000 will bring. We could face many inconveniences or witness a total meltdown of life as we know it. Because we have two small children, we felt it was prudent to make preparations "just in case". Just as we buy life insurance and hope to never use it, we have the same thoughts about our year 2000 preparations. Because even the experts disagree on the potential fallout for the Y2K situation, we wanted to have enough "insurance" to protect our family. Thus, we are preparing for many possibilities and want to share what we have learned with others. If you have no plans to move from your home, in preparation for Y2K, or if you want to keep your preparation costs down, this is what you need. We hope you and your family will benefit from our research and preparations.

Giving it to my employees - excellent summary of how to prep,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Non-Extremist's Guide to Preparing Your Family for Y2K (Mass Market Paperback)
As an employer, I found this to be an excellent guide for my employees. We are doing everything possible in our business to prepare for Y2K, including educating (without alarming) our staff. I was surprised to learn that our staff had very little knowledge of Y2K. By providing them with this book, we were able to educate them, and hopefully, ensure a smoother transition into the year 2000 for us all.

Great! This book took me by the hand and explained precisely what I needed to do. I appreciated that the discussions were on my level (am I the only person on earth who didn't know exactly how to drain the water from my pipes until I read this book?) A good read.

Great source of rational help!!,

This review is from: The Non-Extremist's Guide to Preparing Your Family for Y2K (Mass Market Paperback)
I was so happy to find a book to help us, without trying to scare us! I knew we wanted to prepare but I was so tired of all of the hype out there. This book gave us straight talk about everything we were interested in, including our investments, our bank, appliances, how much food and water to store. As a mother, I was concerned about our kids, but the chapter on the special needs of children has provided some great advice, and has allayed my fears. This book is a sane, no-nonsense, and (thank you) no hype guide to Y2K.
