    For those fellow old farts out there, we managed for a very long time without this newfangled Internet thingy. You can find out more about that era by using the card catalog to find periodicals on microfiche about it at your local public library (if you want to enjoy the true pre-Internet experience).

    You can argue amongst yourselves about whether this monstrosity that Al Gore has wrought is a good thing or not.
