I've heard of tons of ways to say it.  In fact, the internet has been around long enough now that some the earlier terms for the 'net have gone out of date.  When was the last time you heard it called, "the information (super)highway?"  I heard it a lot in the '90s, but I never hear it now.

Either those, or possibly history books.  There are computer history books now that talk about the rise of Microsoft, Apple, Google, etc.

Old books... There are some relatively old books in our house which have "Fraktur" lettering.

I don't own old books (but since I am studying history I am often confronted with old(er) books).

My oldest book is probably a book with bednight stories, but it has no date in it. Second oldest is 'To Kill a Mockingbird' by Harper Lee, from 1979 (the Dutch translation).

I don't think I have any old books, unless they're ones that I've forgotten about that are hidden away in storage.

I have a book on Philadelphia in WWII from my grandfather after he died, published in 1945.

Very true. It is. I do it all the time. I probably snipped larks in 10000 post thread 50 times since the last one.

Time to bring Cybernatic SimAnarchism. It's time for revolution!!! :D :D :D


"If you try to please everybody, you often times end up pleasing nobody, especially yourself. When somebody offers to do a favor for free, like making a mod for SimCity 4, you shouldn't be overly critical of something generously given to you. In other words, you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth." - Twilight Sparkle after playing SimCity

"Being a mayor or a content creator for SimCity 4 is a heavy responsibility, Patrick. Each city and each custom content is like a child, and must be treated as such." - SpongeBob Squarepants after playing SimCity

"Without deviation from the norm, progress is not possible." - Frank Zappa

"The wisest men follow their own direction." - Euripides

Welcome to Fairview, my new city journal *:D

I don't know if it can be done in the community, but it's easy to do in game.  Just lower the police funding to 0%.  I never lower the transit funding, though.  Too many bad memories.
