Come and gone and we got a reprive. Apparently we have to many idiots, dogooders, wankers, religious zelots and the like.
Have to reduce numbers to get judged again as with all of the above we will eventually anhilated oursevles anyway.
Remember all the panic at the end of the 20th century. The thing that sticks in my mind was an interview with an official in Rome. Why worry, he said? We've been through it twice already without any ill-effects.

Good news ...... its still on ...... Judgment Day will actually come on October 21. I think there was some sort of miscalculation as Queensland doesn't have daylight savings ..... or something to that effect.

I see it's not improving your mental state Ratty.
I don't think it's common knowledge as to why there was all the fuss at the end of the 20th C. It was all about a test date that we COBOL programmers were using in the 70's and 80's. See, we weren't supposed to be using COBOL by the time the 9th of September 1999 came around, so we (worldwide) used a test date of 9/9/99 - yeah I know, it's not the end of the year) and there was some kafuffle that all the programs were going to crash as a result of exceeding this date. Apparently no one spotted the fact that the crash (if it was ever going to happen) was going to be on September 10th, not NYE.
Anyway that's about as close as I can get. Certainly COBOL programmers were in ridiculous demand at the time, and then completely unemployed (and unemployable) on New Years Day (I'd already abandoned ship in '85).

It must be frustrating work being a supreme being - wanting to bring it all to an end and those ungrateful humans keep changing the calendar.
