"But you just prove my point, you are just ticked when the right geek words aren't used to be specific even when it doesn't take from the theme. And you compound it saying the Internet isn't the Web and vice versa. Yeah, try telling that to 90% of people using computers."

I prefer to speak precisely, using words with specific meanings. Much technical and scientific training consists of learning the consensus words for particular technological artifacts and concepts.

Also, I appreciate your telecommunications revolution history in a nutshell, but I first used a modem 18 years ago...

If one lives on a diet of porn and nothing else, its addictive. If one views adult material every now and then, its no big deal. People to have use their judgment about what and how much too consume and viewing too much sex could be as bad for you as being a lush loading up regularly on the booze.

Great! I saw a "modem" (ooh, I'm not getting precise) in 1978.

While I have no problem in the use of strict language for communication purposes, to blast the use of a concept because the wires were once red, blue and black instead of blue, green and yellow now is ludicrous, picky and fodder for an engineering conference, not a political forum.

THEN WHY ARE YOU MAKING SUCH A BIG DEAL OF IT?

Oh man, I hope you wore your kevlar, ( I agree with you, but...)

[Fledermaus]

I brought it up because YOU first made it a big deal about the use of the author of "internet".

It's called "conversation".
