Qualifications of the people in the article

I'm sure glad we got the opinions of Zack's friends. I think I'd rather hear from some experts who have been around a while. This was very typical of what you might hear from some college students. Shallow experience provides shallow analysis.

Your inaccurate and irresponsible comments mislead people into believing total myths about the past: "A brief overview of how the Internet came about: some years ago, some military boffs thought it???d be awesome if computers could talk to each other, so the US could nuke the hell out of other countries without actually being near there." Is this really what you think happened, Zack? This is more like "History according to Homer Simpson". I can just imagine inserting a few "dohs" into your statement and it would be perfect dialogue for a Simpson's episode.

Zack, please step it up. Journalism is not just about opinion, hearsay, gossip and conjecture. There are actual facts out there that you can actually research AND understand.
