That's what happens when we watch only FOX, listen to Limbuagh, and Sean Hannity too much [up to 12 hours per day] and stop reading quality newspapers or listen to NPR.
Al Gore and the internet. Same people in KS believe in those made up evolution theories as well, huh.

Not to aid in thread drift(because I think this is a good thread) but do you really believe that Al Gore invented the internet? If you're disputing that he said it, I heard it with my own two ears(along with millions of other pairs of ears). Oh, and relax.
Back to the topic.....I agree with the naysayers on this one. A couple of years ago Kit wrote an article talking about all the "quality" jobs there were to be had in the aviation biz. (remember this was about 2 years ago and I think I was furloughed at the time...from a regional). This guy is a vulture. Pick up the phone, send a fax, research on the internet. Is ours the only business where this kind of interview intimidation takes place? I mean, they're only employers, and people, too. An interview is a TWO WAY STREET. Be knowledgeable, presentable, professional, the same way you were when you interviewed for your first job. If they don't want to hire you then you probably didn't want to work there anyway.

Although Al Gore never claimed to have invented the Internet, he did discuss his role in Internet development in an interview with Wolf Blitzer of Cable News Network. The interview took place on March 9, 1999 during CNN's "Late Edition" show. Specifically, what Gore said was "I took the initiative in creating the Internet."
"That's what happens when we watch only FOX, listen to Limbuagh, and Sean Hannity too much..."
- is "too much" even possible? So, 95% of media is very leftist and 5 % leans to the right - about time the "everything is America’s fault" crowd gets a little competition, isn't it?
"stop reading quality newspapers or listen to NPR"
- Quality newspaper such as New Moscow..., sry New York Times?
- NPR? or is it commie News Propaganda Radio?
- Al Gore - the mansion-environmentalist... LOL what a chunky** joke he is - couldn't even win his own state!

As a matter of fact, on a legislative level, Gore was quite instrumental in promoting the Internet. People took the one line way out of context because of the spinners at Fox News et al.
In the interest of staying on topic, I'm not much of a Darby fan myself.

Yeah, and Hillary Clinton was instrumental in promoting great health care benefits…
Free health care that is!
...of course, that’s because by the time many patients would receive that “free” help, they’ll be long gone…By I digress…

Obviously I didn't impress the recruiters at the job fair because I don't feel I got anything out of it. I talked to several recruiters and each said that I meet the mins and they don't know why I shouldn't get the call to interview. Is this what normaly happens or if they like you do you get more feedback? (I wasn't trying to meet any of the regionals, you know the ones that interview and hire on the spot)

nonsequitur. Gore's efforts resulted in legislation that promoted the Internet. Hillary's health care plan never made it to committee (unfortunately).

In your dreams maybe…

Why don’t you check out the excellent Cuban healthcare? Of course, it’ll differ from what you see in Michael Traitor Moore movie – you see when cameras aren’t rolling, the “real” socialist health care, or lack of, is provided.
As someone who’s born and raised in a western European country with a socialized health care that Hillary touted as an example “to the world” I must say – stop drinking the communist kool-aid. My mother broke her hip in a car accident when the car she was riding in was hit from the side (by a teenager who ran the red light). Her hip was “temporarily" (read on) fixed with metal screws and brackets that were sticking out of her for nearly 2 years while she was “waiting in line” for the real surgery. The surgery itself took less than ½ an hour and was a major relief as during the 2 years she could not mover around without bumping into objects which needless to say was very painful.
To say it's unfortunate Hillary’s care plan never made it to the committee (why don’t you just say collective socialist committee?) only shows you've been brainwashed by neo-coms (neo-communists).
You’ve probably already forgotten but here’s an example of the type of health care provided when Soviet Union was still around (a dated article from your favorite New York Times at the end of this message). I mention it because Hillary’s plan is basically a different name for the same plan – universal, “tax” paid, worthless health care.
Btw, I am not saying the US health care system, especially the health insurance industry, is perfect. However, it is light-years ahead of any country with socialized health care. Also, if we stopped providing health care benefits to the millions of illegal aliens we could actually be able to lower the insurance rates and let everyone, even those with very low incomes to have an insurance.
Also, it’s still not too late for you; you can always join Hugo’s revolution in Venezuela. (don’t worry - 10 years from now when he bankrupts his nation, we’ll come to bail you and other apparatchiks out)
And here's a wet-dream just for you!
U.S. STUDY GIVES SOVIET HEALTH SYSTEM LOW MARKS
SPECIAL TO THE NEW YORK TIMES
Published: May 8, 1983
A report by the Joint Economic Committee of Congress concludes that the health-care system of the Soviet Union is responsible for a decreased life expectancy, decreased fertility and increased infant mortality.
Although information on the mortality rate has long been available, the report, by Dr. Murray Feshback, a senior research scholar at the Kennedy Institute of Ethics at GeorgetownUniversity here, gives unusual attention to the rate's possible causes. Dr. Feshback depicts shortages of doctors, hospital beds, medicine and other supplies.
''They've made remarkable achievements in the past decades, but they have a great distance to go,'' Dr. Feshback said. He said the ability to collect data mostly from within the Soviet Union was evidence of the country's concern about the situation.
''It's come to the point where party leaders took public recognition of the problem,'' he said. ''They're having a great deal of difficulty.'' Reaction by Soviet Embassy
The data came from Soviet journals and press reports, as well as accounts by Western journalists and Soviet emigres. Michael Lysenko, assistant to the press counselor at the Soviet Embassy here, said he could not comment on the report. ''How can we read it if it has not yet been published?'' he asked. ''First we will read it, then we will comment.''
The report was made available by Congressional sources and will be released next week. It is one of 50 on the Soviet economy. The committee conducts Soviet surveys every three years.
Although ''there has been a vast increase in the number of doctors, the number of hospital beds, the total amount of money expended for health and the reduction of infectious diseases since the time of the October Revolution,'' he wrote, the efforts did not meet the need. 9 1/2 Months for Bifocals
Supplies, the report says, are difficult to obtain, and they are not always of the highest quality. Dr. Feshback said that the average wait for bifocals in Moscow was nine and a half months and that shortages of such drugs as insulin, aspirin and novocaine were severe.
For more than 30,000 children born with congenital heart disease each year, one neonatal intensive-care unit existed in 1981. The United States had 485 such units.

What are you talking about? You're all over the place. I stated one fact about Gore and simply inserted an editorial comment about my beliefs that health care needs to be more universal. Do you know anything about the history of legislation regarding the Internet? Apparently not. All you can do is post an article about the lack of quality in the former Soviet health care system. It is a gross oversimplification to disregard efforts to universal health care because of the the former USSR. Last I checked, they weren't the be all end all of the socialization of medicine.
Back to the point. I stated one fact and all you could respond with was a very simple minded "in your dreams". One would here such things from kids at the playground.

"Note that these authors of (and participants in) Internet history state clearly that as early as 1988, then-Senator Gore became involved in the goal of building a national research network."
