Actually, there may be multiple internets.

Internet is just a term that means interconnected networks. Kinda like interstate highways, highways that traverse more than one state.

(Well, with the exception of Hawaii's interstate, but that's another federal government boondoggle.)

So I'm sure there are classified DOD internets that are seperate from the internet that you and I get at our home from ISPs.

Some of what I read was just silly. Other things were just abstractions and metaphors that are commonly used.

PS, can someone put the internet on a floppy for me, I lost my copy? Or do I need something bigger like a CD or DVD?
