The Dark Side to the Internet
My Usenet server only holds posts for a week, so I almost missed this in the latest digest. (I believe it was Ron who introduced me to these? or Dave? or Ron?)

The Internet Oracle has pondered your question deeply. Your question was:
> Oracle most wise, > > Is it true people use the Internet for other things besides porn?
And in response, thus spake the Oracle:
} Absolutely! You can also spread viruses with the internet. Steal books, } music and videos. And lets not forget the endless supply of "free" } games out there waiting to be downloaded. } } There is a dark side to the internet. Some people put _information_ } on their web sites. No nude chicks or pirated music. Actual useful } information about cars, the weather, what's on TV tonight, etc. } I can't tell you how much those freaks creep me out. Stay away from } them or next thing you know you might find yourself doing unspeakable } things like studying and research. Imagine what you mom will think when } she finds out you know WAY too much about 18th century Romanian art. } } You owe the Oracle some links to sites about naval warfare in the } late 1500's. Not for me mind you, its... uh... for a friend.
