Denise,
You burst my bubble. I thought the Internet was a series of tubes.:p

"The Internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes." – Senator Ted Stevens (R-Alaska)

I thought it was on the back of a shrimp boat in the Gulf of Mexico...I thought it was the Bubba Gump!

[KnottedYet]

I think I like William Gibson's internet. (Mona Lisa Overdrive, Neuromancer, etc.)

I thought it was where you are when you are on the phone.

Oh, that was cyberspace. Same, same.

and to go through the circle of thought,when you think about wonders,we are back to evolution AND LOOK AT US!!!!riding a bicycle,propelling ourselves forwards,upwards.........on a pair of skinny wheels when we are designed to walk!not too sure if this means our brain is a wonder,or just a complete adoration of the human body.SHOWS WE GOTTS LOOK AFTER OURSELVES!:)
