Umm... those who "built the internet" (Postel? Berners-Lee? JWZ?
Andreesen? Norstad? Pib?) probably don't fall into the class I was
describing above. Except for Al Gore. ;-)
Google "dot com bubble" and "destroyed pension plans" for more
information. These are the types of people who didn't get it when Homer
said, "They have the Internet on computers now?"

Ha! I think my youthful myopia will just result in a stronger
prescription from my optometrist.
It seems my comment was misunderstood. If it's pleasing for you to be
offended by misreading my words, enjoy. Glad to help.
