  1. Yay! on Al Gore to Receive Internet Achievement Award · · Score: 0

    I am finally receiving the recognition that I so richly deserve. Now if it weren't for that %#&^#^*! in Florida, I would be your President too. Maybe we can have another recount/appeal.

  2. I, AlGore created the internet. on NASA Funds Sci-Fi Technology · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    I, AlGore created the internet.

    Many posts on this board accuse me of saying I only "invented the internet". This is patently false, I am greater than that, I said that "I took the initiative in creating the Internet" as the following interview with Mr. Blitzer will show.

    BLITZER: I want to get to some of the substance of domestic and international issues in a minute, but let's just wrap up a little bit of the politics right now.

    Why should Democrats, looking at the Democratic nomination process, support you instead of Bill Bradley, a friend of yours, a former colleague in the Senate? What do you have to bring to this that he doesn't necessarily bring to this process?

    GORE: Well, I will be offering - I'll be offering my vision when my campaign begins. And it will be comprehensive and sweeping. And I hope that it will be compelling enough to draw people toward it. I feel that it will be.

    But it will emerge from my dialogue with the American people. I've traveled to every part of this country during the last six years. During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet. I took the initiative in moving forward a whole range of initiatives that have proven to be important to our country's economic growth and environmental protection, improvements in our educational system.

    During a quarter century of public service, including most of it long before I came into my current job, I have worked to try to improve the quality of life in our country and in our world. And what I've seen during that experience is an emerging future that's very exciting, about which I'm very optimistic, and toward which I want to lead.
