We haven&#8217;t learned the lessons of the first two, and our ignorance of the third may doom us to be slaves to our government, rather than the other way around.<\/p>\n<p>Leading into the changeover from 1999-2000, we faced Y2K, the crisis that didn&#8217;t happen. Many people thought computers&#8217; dates would go from 1999 back to 1900, causing our computer-dominated world to fail: bank accounts disappearing, air-traffic systems (and airplanes) crashing, and everything leading to economic collapse and a return to the Stone Age. <\/p>\n<p>Some scientists told us the world would end, but it didn&#8217;t. And the solution didn&#8217;t necessitate everyone throwing out their computers and buying new ones. We should remember this non-crisis when we think about global warming.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nSource: americanthinker.com<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/climaterealists.com\/index.php?id=4766\">Read in full with comments \u00bb<\/a>  &nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/QT6om0QUbJAa2VBKzvjGxi19Pgg\/0\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/QT6om0QUbJAa2VBKzvjGxi19Pgg\/0\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/QT6om0QUbJAa2VBKzvjGxi19Pgg\/1\/da\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feedads.g.doubleclick.net\/~a\/QT6om0QUbJAa2VBKzvjGxi19Pgg\/1\/di\" border=\"0\" ismap=\"true\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/ClimaterealistsNewsBlog\/~4\/ZgfTcc4Esqo\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Article Tags: Financial, Sammy Benoit When we look back at the decade 2000-2009, we may well define it by three crises: the crisis that didn&#8217;t happen, the crisis that wasn&#8217;t supposed to happen, and the crisis that we don&#8217;t realize is happening.
