Hus.K : "The USA did not Invent the Internet perhaps in your warped Imagination they did. It was actually Tim Berners Lee who did invented the internet (although not all of it) and he's British"

Tim Berners Lee invented the internet did he?

Will you excuse me while laugh?
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Listen, fool, I suggest you go check your history.

Your Tim Beners Lee may have invented the internet in your dreams, this happens to be real life.
There is a difference.
Get it?

Umm...Ever heard of Vint Cerf?

Read and weep :

"Vinton G. Cerf is commonly referred to as the "father of the Internet".
During his tenure from 1976-1982 with the United States Department of
Defense's Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), Cerf played a key role
leading the development of Internet and Internet-related data packet and
security technologies, including co-designing the TCP/IP protocol. As vice
president of MCI Digital Information Services from 1982-1986, he led the
engineering of MCI Mail, the first commercial email service to be connected
to the Internet. In December 1997, he was presented the U.S. National Medal
of Technology by President Bill Clinton, along with his his partner Robert
E. Kahn, for these accomplishments.

Cerf holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Mathematics from Stanford
University and Master of Science and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science from
UCLA. He also holds honorary Doctorates from the University of the Balearic
Islands, ETH in Switzerland, Capitol College and Gettysburg College."
