Well, sort of. He had already retired from his post as Speaker at the
time of the 1 September 2000 CSPAN broadcast of an American Political
Science Association colloquium where he delivered these remarks:

: In all fairness, it's something Gore had worked
: on a long time. Gore is not the Father of the
: Internet, but in all fairness Gore is the person
: who, in the Congress, most systematically
: worked to make sure that we got to an Internet.
