    What Al Gore gets credit for legislation passed?
    Yes he does. He wrote it, and by hook or by crook he convinced congress to pass it. If it were not for him, any legislation that might have been written would have been significantly different and a few years late.
    So you did not even read my quote again
    ...
    The Democrats get elected by sconvincing the unwashed masses to vote Democrat and ignore the issue. Apparently you have fallen victim to this brain washing.
    Don't you get tired of singing that one note song?

    I've been working on the net since the 80s - since before there was a world wide web. I lived through a good part of its history, even contributed to a little bit of it myself. I don't give a ratsass what political party Gore is in. I care about getting the history of the net correct - not letting it be defined by some raving jackass with a misquoted sound-bite.

    Sorry wrong again. Al Gore did not write one bit of that legislation it was written by his staff. I doubt he even read it. As for him single handedly getting the legislation passed that is BS. No one gets anything even considered for discussion without the approval by the leadin members of the majority party. And I keep bringing up your failure to read the material you post and I post because your arguments run counter to what you posted. As for singing that one note in your last post that was the first time I mentioned it. Maybe you are getting it mixed up with all the other people telling you the same thing. You know if you beleive one thing and everybody else is telling you the opposite has it ever occured to you that they are right?

    LOL!

    Vint Cerf a Liberal group?

    Now I've heard it all.

    I once turned in a document to a supervisor with the phrase "the internet" on it. He looked at me, and said, "Whoops! you mistyped this" and corrected it to read "the Internet." I said, "I didn't mistype it. I like it lowercase." He replied, "Dude, it's uppercase." I said, "Says who?" He said, "Says who? Get the F*%& out of my office until you can come back and tell me who."

    I humbly retreated to my computer and came back 15 minutes later.

    "Vinton Cerf!"

    Nate

    Yes, God forbid anyone should treat you like a rational person. Plonk.
