-Demosthenes- Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 It's so cheap and easy to communicate with people around the world that anyone can do it. This efficient medium is the internet. Through it groups of people can form ideas, and learn from each other, and we're all the better for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pangloss Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 I was robbed! BTW, Time actually put a *mirror* on the cover of their print edition. Kinda cheesy really, but I thought their choice was an apt one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecoli Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 The internet? What the hell is the internet? Maybe you mean the Internet? Why is the correct spelling of that capitalized, anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbiterol Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 Wow, what an honour. I realize that this is quite possibly a joke, and I don't want to sound snappy or immature. However... While you are familiar with the Commonwealth spelling of honour, as well as others (centre, industrialisation, and so on and so forth), Pangloss is a resident of the US - Florida, to be somewhat exact (at least according to his profile, which I have no reason to ignore). The US English spelling of honor is in fact honor. Remember - this is a global forum. Think of things from a global perspective. But yes, people who can't spell are extremely annoying.
