The guest editorial notes warnings about the 9-9-99 date and the Y2K bug. It says few serious issues occurred beyond minor telecom and internet glitches. It credits heavy industry preparation, software testing, and backup systems for a largely smooth transition into 1-1-00.
Guest editorials present diverse viewpoints for readers. Views expressed are not necessarily those of The Herald or its editor.

Dim Byun, Governor Bill Graves, and State legislators with mixed room numbers and contact lines. The block reads like a directory snippet with inconsistent formatting.
The Kansas State Board of Education voted 6-4 to allow local boards control of science curriculum amid backlash. The author argues education evolves, cites history, and supports presenting multiple views on evolution to foster critical thinking and tolerance.
An editorial defends evolution education against critics who fear moral decay. It argues schools face many influences beyond biology class and that denying information harms learning. The piece urges understanding over indoctrination and questions creationism as a valid alternative.
