Exactly. That "Feeding the Internet" box is really a
hopelessly confusing description about the Internet,
and I doubt how much hands-on experience the author of
that article had in using the Internet. Just look
at his description about the Internet Relay Chat
(no, I never liked irc, btw) and his emphasis on
ANONYMOUS ftp, giving an impression that ftp is
used solely in the anonymous way. The major confusion,
nonetheless, lies with his mixed descriptions about
the Internet and the Usenet. Well... /aaron.
