Following on from the 'inventor of the internet' thread I thought I'd add this little news bulletin.

This Canadian News Bulletin (http://ms.radio-canada.ca/archives/English/computers19931008et1.wmv) was broadcast when the internet wasn't as vast and well known as today.

It opens in Windows media player and is 6 mins long.
However it's very interesting.

Have things changed? Well I disagree with one of the speakers comments on the internet for sure... see if you spot it!:thumbsup:

...there's not a lot of cursing or swearing, there's not a lot of erm, personal... um... cut, there's not a lot of, um, put-downs that one would expect to find. There's not, y'know, screenfulls of, y'know... "Go to hell!"...That bit? :):-] I AM KIDDING
:-[ I AM SERIOUSOr maybe that? Or the best bit...(picture of Swedish flag) Starin, in Oslo...

There's also......accurate details of testimony at a manslaughter trial......and a few seconds later...The murder file...


That's great! I was wondering about that kind of thing the other day...

First one was right!

I see so much cursing all the time online cos people are resonably safe!

Still a good bulletin wasn't it!
