Vinton Cerf and Bob Kahn made the internet happen. Anyone else laying claim to it is wrong. Fucking idiots cannot learn history.

Yep Zaelath, but all this guy did was improve on Gopher, and he was not the only person that did it. but you know, England will Knight almost anyone now. Sir Mick and Sir Paul and Sir Elton can attest to it.

I have to say that Sir Mick and Sir Paul both deserve it.

Back your shit up with facts, please. Every site I can find supports my sense that you are talking shit. I don't want your uncoroborated bullshit either, you can provide links just like the rest of us.


As far as I can find, all this guy did was invent the World Wide Web. I know that you would have thought of it first if you hadn't been busy playing in the schoolyard at the time, but this guy beat you to it.

And all Bill Gates did was improve on CPM, what's your fucking point? Other people climbed Everest too, but I'd be hard pressed to name one other than Hillary (oh dear, he was knighted too)

Knighthoods are a bit like grammies, in fact, they're so irrelevant, I can't help but snicker that you would attempt to score points from them given your usual bullshit about the commonwealth.

Why don't you just stick to your petty vendetta against Moore and other topics you feel you have a vested interest in, and stop moaning about sour grapes.

Porn didn't invent the internet/WWW but it speeded up the process.

I remember downloading my first binary off a newsgroup in 1988. It happened to be a pic of a woman blowing a guy. *tears well up* That was the greatest day of my life! I remember it like people remember where they were when the Challenger blew up or when Ron Jeremy was captured in the middle east.
