    It's sad to see the damage caused by drug abuse.

    "The internet was born in Japan 2001"... That's that only part i have a problem with. The rest is entirely plausible.

    That still doesn't work for me... I was on the internet way back in the early 90's...

    Maybe that was a different system though. One made of dogs maybe?

    That original internet was DARPAnet.
    Dog-based
    Architecture of
    Relays and
    PAckets

    That one was found to be inefficient as many emails and daily newspaper e-deliveries were often shredded and covered in slobber.

    Cats are the source of all that's good in the universe. Cats existed before god. Cats know everything, and they know enough to keep it to themselves. And they purr.

    They have a serious misconception here.

    The Internet is not made OF cats - it was made FOR cats.
    Servers are repositories to hold cute cat photos and videos! All of the World Wide Web is to help people LOOK at cats.

    Silly people. Sheeeeeesh.

    They'll never succeed. They may build a machine that outwardly mimics some aspects of cat behavior, but as for cat intelligence, ain't gonna happen. What they don't realize is that cats know a lot of stuff that they are smart enough to keep to themselves.

    Years ago in Bloom County, a Microsoft AI experiment went awry and Mr Gates was trapped in the body of Bill the Cat - now known as Bill the Gates. :D
