The people is obviously bias. I see no diferance in saying "I invented
the internet" and "I took the initiative to create the internet". Since he was obviously talking about creating a single internet network or line, as with a highway system, to create and invent is the same thing. You cannot create something that does not exist if not invented. You cannot invent without creating something. They are only differant when talking a smaller scale. You can create a new canopener that has been made before, but you can only invent it if it had not been made, but in so doing you will have created one unit. Since the internet is a new system the words have the same meaning. The arguement about President Eisenhower is moot because he never said it. Since Eisenhower actually had a head on his shouders I doubt he would have made such a gaffe. If so he would have been able to explain it. Gore didn't seem to have a clue that his legislation was about the Web, and that the internet had been invented almost two decades before his legislation. |
