Inventing the Internet

I included this video, not to embarrass our former Vice President, but to address an issue that won't seem to go away. Yes he said it. Yes he apparently misspoke. In 1969 ARPANet had its first test by connecting four computers from the UCLA, the Stanford Research Institute, U Cal Santa Barbara, and the U of Utah. The first message was sent between UCLA and SRI. Leonard Kleinrock, who worked at UCLA, describes what happened when the message "login' was typed:
We set up a telephone connection between us and the guys at SRI
We typed the L and we asked on the phone,
Do you see the L?
Yes, we see the L, came the response.
We typed the O, and we asked, Do you see the O?
Yes, we see the O.
Then we typed the G, and the system crashed

He sponsored and whipped the bills that paid for laying the fiber backbone of the internet that we all use today back in the late 80's when he was in congress

Al Gore is a fraud... Good thing Bush took over instead of Whore, I mean Gore.

@manidafonz83 I thought "plants breath carbon dioxide dipshit" was the dumbest thing I ever heard, but "more carbon dioxide means more plants" was even worse. And you're commenting on how much I know? You're in high school aren't you? BTW I don't really care for Gore. Never said I did. Never even mentioned him. Just commented on an vapid statement from an obtuse individual who can't tell the difference between a natural occurring phenomena and highly toxic pollutants created nowhere in Nature.

@manidafonz83 Really? Explain to me how humans exhale the same chemical that appears when you burn petrolium, and how plants magically appear.

I would also like to point out that all the air that we breathe does not automatically make humans appear.

@shniddles What the fuck? more carbon dioxide means more plants...I'm sick of you Al Gore butt-licking idiots trying to talk shit when you dont know half the shit that comes out of your ass...Al Gore is a FRAUD! PERIOD AND PROVEN!
