Have you guys seen the TV ads for networkMCI? Little girl standing on
a beach, talking dreamily about what the Information Highway will
mean. Paraphrased (from two different ads): "It's not really a
highway. It won't just connect two points, it will connect all
points." My favorite bit: "It won't take you from here to there.
There will be no more there. We will all be here." Big cute grin.
OK, so it's pretty content-free, but it's trying to do some important
paradigm engineering on the public. And it's neat. :-) Anybody here
from MCI able to assign credit?
