What might it mean to my business?

A presentation of Y2K Industries, USA

What is history good for?

Rome sacking: ca. 1000 a.u.c.

Rome founding: 0 a.u.c.

Constantinople: falls 1040 years after it rises.

FIRST ARAB DEFEATS: ca. 1000 Higri

Christian millenia: one

(and counting)

Last known effects: mayhem, chaos, crumbling regimes.

“Harold, a king, is murdered.”

Europe changed more around 1800 and 1900 than any other time.

All of which brings up a question...

French Revolution, etc. (first fatal blows to European monarchies)

Russian Revolution, etc. (uniform fall of European monarchies)

What does all this mean to me?And more importantly...

What does it mean to my business?

Risks and ThreatsMillennium = change = risk

Free markets free people

Long fall from the top

P.R.: Fool all, always?

Unhappiness at all levels

Sam “Buddy” Goodfellow, Chief Technical Officer

Millennium could act as a destructive lensendangering laws on which our power depends.
