re: #476 Obdicut

Dude, I’m well-versed in the history of the internet. Which is why I think it’s important to give Gore his due for what he did do at funding, popularizing, and mainstreaming the internet. I posted a quote from the man most heavily identified as ‘the’ inventor of the internet who gives Gore heaps of credit as well.

Glad you are well-versed on it. I worked on it in the mid 60s. I never heard of Al Gore till well over a decade or more later. Granted all my stuff was military and classified. Give him all the credit there is for shifting from military to civilian use.
We were sending data packets back and forth half way round the world via computer routinely in the mid 60s.
