Sorry, he said he created the internet, not invented it. So what?

Truth is stranger than fiction.
This is why writers and readers prefer fiction.

Though the Military called it officially as the ARPANET, it has been
called the internet since its inception in 1969. What Gore sponsored
was an early version of the Web. Obviously he didn't have a clue as to
what his in this bill as he didn't enven know the proper name.


Thank you for this information "Sport Pilot" but my point wasn't who
literally invented the internet, it was that Gore has been unfairly
characterized as having claimed he had done so. In fact he never said
that, but some people love to hate him so that they continue to throw
out that quote anyway. It played well in the conservative talk shows.

If Gore wasn't always trying to take credit for stuff he had little to
nothing to do with, then he wouldn't be the laughing stock of the late
night talk shows.
