Wow, that's gotta hurt sales....... Why would they want a known communist
sympathizer on their front page. I officially hate Apple more than ever.

He may have gotten them from Edwin or one of the other Wintrolls. That
is why they spout all kinds of paranoia about Apple. Drugs will do that
to you.

His claim to fame was coining the phrase "information superhighway".

No, he didn't, and he never claimed to. He said "During my service in the
United States Congress I took the initiative in creating the Internet."
It is not the same thing at all.

Gore' statement was a total lie. ARPANET, the predecessor to the Internet,
was created before Algore set foot in congress. Its sad when an insecure,
intellectually limited spoiled rich boy has to make up lies to make himself
look like a big man.

But I'm so glad that Jobs and the other liberals at Apple want to honor him.
