Usenet started in 1980 and became really popular when Win 95 came out. Before that BBS was used on DOS. The reason that Etienne mentioned Google is that they archive Usenet posts from the 80s on, and in 2001 purchased DejaNews. You can now access Usenet through a google server. I don't know what the Innertubes is either, but Usenet utilizes many languages. As I said, there's no irritation, just laughing at someone who has no idea of the system that he's now using to make a fool of himself. You could've save a little face by just googling Usenet. BK

Well, I *wasn't* going to laugh at how you're making a fool of yourself. Personally, I *always* check my nonsense before posting it to the Innertubes. Yo do know, don't you that google is just a really big number, right? Most programs don't gracefully handle numbers that big, so your suggestion is likely to crash large parts of the Innertubes when running the NN Talk Program (for short). Also, there MIGHT be a few non-English uses of the Innertubrs, but they are HIGHLY illegal, since America owns the Innertubes. Mark Edwards -- Proof of Sanity Forged Upon Request

Bullshit. You post through Supernews (at $12 a month, LOL), and if you'll go to their home page it specifically says " Purely. Simply. Usenet". Since that's how you get here it sure isn't National Network Talk Program that allows you to post. So much for your checking your nonsense. >Yo do know, don't you that google is just a really big number, right?

How about a link to your NN Talk Program? >Also, there MIGHT be a few non-English uses of the Innertubrs, but they >are HIGHLY illegal, since America owns the Innertubes. > No National Network Talk Program, no Innertubes, this is Usenet. If you don't realize that you're the fool. QED BK

Is that the Korean player? I thought only Chinese and African-American played in the NBA. I think that tall Chinese player's name is "Miao Ming". Etienne |
