75. Right, their masters were pleased. Gave them an extra bone or two, some
table scraps. My favorite offense was their crap about Gore saying he invented the internet. He didn't say that but without Gore, the internet would certainly have been delayed. I know that for a fact because I was in the biz at that time and we were worried shitless about 'free networking' and then Sen. Gore was behind it. Great judgment on his part, brilliant guy, they trashed him. Fuck them, forever.
