What happened to the Y2K people?

Ok, so I'm dying to know what happened to those poor bastards that panicked about Y2K and mortgaged their houses and quit their jobs and built underground bunkers and spent all their savings on supplies for the end of the world. News stories would be great ;-)

    They went back to work and are still paying off their mortgages, But they'll be back. Wait until 2012 because the world is going to come to another end. so says, the Mias, Inkas,and the Bible also talks about the end of the world they have all prophesied about the war of wars, and the Mians even have gave us a date.
