Hi Ian,
Did you see the special article about Tim Berners-Lee in yesterday's
"Good Weekend"? It opened with the claim that he invented the internet.
WRONG! We all know it was Al Gore who invented the internet.
Interesting that he was originally going to call it TIM (for The
Information Mine) instead of World Wide Web, but he was too embarrassed.
I note that TIM is MIT reversed, the institution where he now works.
