“We’ll call it ‘The Information Super Highway.’””

I’ll have you know I am a back panel comic book, mail away, certified expert in history!

It was first named “The Gossip Main Street”.

It didn’t become the Information Super Highway until some crazy Europeans were gonna try to name it the Chat Autobahn.

We figured Autobahn sounded too much like Audubon. And Chat was so informal...

Much debate and beer later, Information Super Highway was born. But that’s just a place holder.

It’s final official name is going to be...

The Grand Censor Index.

Chat is French for "cat." They couldn't foresee that the primary purpose of the internet would be sending cat videos.
