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. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Internet ---------------------------------------------- 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. |
