As far as I am concerned, the US of A don't really exist, they were
invented by Hollywood.

I think it would also benefit the planet if the USA had their own
internet. Remember, AOL came from USA, and so did MS. They may have
invented the internet (DARPAnet) but we (Europeans) invented computers
(Konrad Zuse, Germany), programming (Ada Lovelace, UK), the World Wide Web
(Robert Cailliau, Belgium + Tim Berners-Lee, UK) and of course Linux
(Linus Torvalds, Finland)!


And now a really big fat smiley: ;-)
