    pretty cool. But it makes a girl wonder why all the humans in the vid have to be represented with the mens’ bathroom symbol. After all, the history of computer development is rich with non-men type of people including Grace Hopper and Sally Floyd.

    Excellent. I learned a couple of things from that I was not aware of, about the network work being done in France and England.

    I actually used Arpanet for a bit back in the day. I have an ID with ARIN because I registered an IP range with them before ISP’s existed. And I can remember when you had to swear that you would NOT use a domain for commercial purposes or else it had to go through an extra layer of approval because the net was supposed to be used for not-for-profit or educational purposes only.
