10.7 - Y2K - Time to Panic!
In the late 90s there was a fear that all electronics would stop working as the year changed to 2000.

Read a book with the numeral 2, the Roman numeral II or the word "two" in the title or subtitle. The numeral or word must stand alone - no 23 or twenty-two. Ordinal numbers (2nd) cannot be used, since the 2 doesn't stand alone.

Sorry, the 2 must stand alone.

Julia (julia103) | 2719 comments Making sure I understand about Roman numeral II and stand-alone:

Anything with "World War II" in title or subtitle works but if it has "WWII" it wouldn't work because II doesn't stand alone.

A Woman of No Importance: The Untold Story of the American Spy Who Helped Win World War II - Yes

Code Name: Lise: The True Story of the Woman Who Became WWII's Most Highly Decorated Spy - No

Is that right?
