Interesting Justin. While I have heard of ARPANET, I didn't realize how similar it was to the internet we know today.

Wasn't the internet invented in the late 80s?
Per wiki:In March, 1970, the ARPANET reached the U.S. East Coast, when an IMP at BBN itself was joined up to the network. Thereafter, the network grew quickly: 9 IMPs by June 1970, and 13 by December; 18 by September, 1971 (at which point 23 hosts, at universities and government research centers, were connected to the ARPANET); 29 by August, 1972, and 40 by September, 1973.

I remember freenet at Case Western Reserve in the early 80s.

I don't recall the reply but will look it up.j_crazy wrote: If you're referring to my pictures don't worry I'll take them down myself (except on the thread that is locked, a mod will have to do that).
But Belly I want you to know that what you said offended me, and I'm white. I have a family member who converted to judaism and to have you say what you did really pissed me off. You should also know that until 12.11.2009 at 02:23 PM (when you made the initial post) I had nothing but respect for you. But at 02:28 PM on 12.11.2009 (when you replied to my question), I lost all respect for you and didn't care if you were slandered.
As I have stated I will take what is given to me
No matter what I say there is no defends
Those are my own standards and i would not be true to myself if I didn't accept the bashing.
But what you think of me is not truthful depiction of the Belly. Those that know me, very few I tend to keep to myself because of the underling feeling of losing friends understand my striaght forward approach. It comes off poorly is some situation as of this forum.
