a driving force behind the internet. Your "experience" has nothing to
do with the underlying reasons for the internet's creation and
nurturing.

Why do you feel the need to defend Al Gore? The internet grew out of
ARPANET and TCP/IP which was a little before Al's time.

Didn't the original concept evolve out of DARPA ? I think that
agency was instrumental in funding what became ARPANET.

ARPA preceeds DARPA. There was ARPANET and then there was the Internet.

All correct. Never said Gore had the original concept. He never
claimed to invent the internet. Read up on the actual facts. They're
not hard to find, unless you're reading fox news website.

The actual facts? I was there in the 80's and early 90's working on TCP/IP bridges and
routers and other TCP/IP components.

You're an idiot. Nothing about you being "there" has anything to do
with the discussion.
