> The Internet is only 20 years young Are you confusing "the web" with The Internet?

  I probably am. Thanks for clarifying. I'm sure it tripped up several people. BTW, were you using either the Internet or the web before the early 90's? When have you used the Internet without using the web? Are you this hard to communicate with in real life?

    > BTW, were you using either the Internet or the web before the early 90's? You mean "the 80's" then. No I was working on mainframes. Much more fun. > When have you used the Internet without using the web? Many many times. Usenet, FTP, telnet, bulletin boards etc. > Are you this hard to communicate with in real life? Given that my day job is being a System Engineer for a search company, one has to be pedantic to a certain degree - but you appear to be leveling a claim of my being difficult to communicate with due to a minor error on your part that was corrected by someone that can differentiate between the two. But to answer your question: No, I can be far far worse, if necessary :p
