Bill didn't invent the 'information superhighway'. That term was coined by Al Gore in the late 70s. By the early 90s it was a pervasive 'meme' used to obliquely refer to the sum of all the available electronic information services. Its cultural currency and relevancy went to zero once everyone had an instantiation of a computer network they could access be it AOL, MSN, or the wider internet.
