I knew he was making a joke, you knew he was making a joke, we all knew he was making a joke. Some of us, apparently, are idiotic pedantic ***** who point out the rhetorical lack of veracity in throw away one liners.

I know you're a dim witted simpleton, you know..etc.


Ok, Totem made a witty one-liner joke. But that joke only works as a joke because there is such a common perception that Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet, and he's a complete moron for having done so.

I think that major media can edit, misquote and opinionise until news becomes outright propaganda. I think one of the outstanding propaganda achievements of the conservative biased media in the US recentishly is this massive, long-running opinion that Al Gore is stupid, ineffective, a joke, and a believer in lunatic fringe theories in the face of all reason.

I was just thrilled at the opportunity to put forward a counter opinion of him, even if it looked like I was simply missing the point.

Only among complete morons. Was that seriously what you thought you were doing there? Educating the readers of THIS forum about the factual accuracy of a political myth? Really?? About Al ******* GORE of all people?

Good point, he's not ineffective.

Keeping a post under 2000 words is complete torture for someone with Asperger's. I practise understanding humour, but I've only made some headway with it in the last five years. In the meantime you are going to have to put up with me being deadly dull and earnest most of the time. You have your little red arrow for when I give you indigestion.
