Love this story

It's about an old lady who is 101 and IT coders can't cope with someone born in 1922. The computers read her birth date as 2022 and treat her as an infant.

It's Y2K in reverse!

They'd better get their act together soon as we are all reaching this sort of age and this will be cropping up in all sorts of systems.
