djp928 writes "A study commisioned by Congress in 1998 to report on internet traffic has finally been published -- 7 years, two presidents, and one internet boom/bust later. Some of their findings include "DNS is good" and "We should probably have some more TLDs""

    "The United States has Iraq, Iran, Syria, China, the EU, The UN, The Environment, Social Security and Jobs to worry about before a bottom of the heap internet study is to be conducted."

    Bomb them, get ready to bomb them, bomb them later, exploit them, screw them, ignore them, piss on it, destroy it and down play it. So, lets study the Net!

    Thats a bargain. It took between $6 and $10 million to figure out Clinton got head from a fat girl.

    And Congress seemed to care more that Clinton got head from a fat girl than they care about Bush starting a war on deceit (WMD's anyone?)

    Oh yeah, this'll get modded up and down a few times haha
