Our favourite republican senator from Alaska explains what the internet and net-neutrality is.![]() Original ill conceived and missinformed rant: Series of tubes.mp3 And now for the techno version ![]() Ted's Techno Tubes! And for more fun, just google SERIES OF TUBES Can’t you hear this conversation that weekend when he didn’t receive his “Internet”? “I know one thing, I tell ya whut… if them dang ol’ tubes git an’eh more fill’d up, I may be havin’ to head up yonder and fix me a sandwich and some pop. I can’t be ‘xpected ta wait ’round all day when someone’s sent me an Internet.” |

More of the wonderfully funny Ted Stevens http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DClkE64nFDY&e Ted Stevens and the Inteli-Tube Pneumatic Transportation System ![]() Ted Stevens’ reference to tubes is actually based on those old pneumatic tubes (literally) that dominated old businesses until perhaps 1960. I still think they are kind of cool. Poor Stevens obviously could only understand the Net with this analogy and, so he talks about tubes. These are the tubes that he means. The tubes, the tubes the tubes the tubes! |
