BTW, it is somewhere on the 'net, Snopes maybe, but Gore never said that he invented the internet, Goebbels would be proud of the RNC.

Snopes is one place you can find it but it doesn't matter. The righties and deniers won't look or won't believe it if they do. Hating Al Gore has taken on the less salutary aspects of a religion.

Most likely, but they really need to realize that the Republicans do not rule by divine right, maybe we need an American version of the Magna Carta.

Actually of some of the ones that did; Vint Cerf, Larry Roberts, Bob Metcalfe, Leonard Kleinrock is the only one that I never met personally.
