[NU Sports] TV for Wisconsin Game

[Jeff Beamsley]

Jonathan,

I wasn't offended.  

Just having a little fun at your expense.

I agree that you owe no one an apology for being proud of being young.

It is your job to change the world.  If you want to start by removing all
those over 35 who are abusing their positions of power, that sounds like a
good plan to me.

Jeff

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.

Jonathan
