Vint Cerf Talks About The "Interplanetary Internet"

Uncle Humph1 writes "There's an interesting article at NewsForge by Robin (Roblimo)Miller about Vint Cerf giving a presentation to NOVALUG about the Interplanetary Internet and having lunch with them afterward. An interesting read. One of the quotables by Vint with regard to security reads 'We're building in security from end to end,' he says, 'because we don't need headlines saying, '15-year-old takes over Mars.'" Here is some more information about the interplanetary Internet.

First Fuck you to the Eurotrash

Hi, I'm a euro-socialist. I think America is an evil capitalist country. I support my communist friends down in Johannesburg because America is the reason there are poor in the world. I think the government should be my mommy and daddy, wipe my ass, read me bed-time stories because I'm too weak to work for myself.

Now if Russia went communist against I would say America is a great friend because my country is way too weak to defend against a Russian invasion and I don't want to have to learn Russian.

Bye my euro-peon, communist friends

Vint Cerf, safe at home.

Did you know that Vint Cerf's primary income for the last fourteen years has been... welfare? It's a fact. He's been fired from so many jobs that he's effectively unemployable. Getting fired is bad, but his usual M.O. (e.g. the incident at DEC in 1983 when he was caught mainlining heroin in the men's room) is to screw up so drastically that they won't even give him any references. He's used up his "last chance" so many times that there are, quite simply, no more chances left.

So this man, this demonically abusive drug addict, this compulsive pornographer and serial killer, this abductor of so many children that he will never get the blood out of his clown suit, this monster in human form named Vint Cerf... is considered just the sort of "mentor" that Slashdot users need.

Why am I not surprised?

I have, by merely posting this message within 20 (Earth) minutes of the time at which you wrote your own message, proven you wrong, in at least an empirical sense.

It is unfortunate for you, jpmorgan, that our "calculations" (the closest word in your English) do not predict the successful transference of knowledge between our species over the course of the next 7,342 of your Earth years.

Vint Cerf is a tool

Just wanted to point that out.
