- * SO, WHATZ THE PROBLEM? (with apologies to Douglas Adams)
-
- There are of course many problems connected with young ape-descended life
- forms, of which some of the most popular are `What is life all about?'
- `Will I ever be able really to understand young ape-descended life forms
- of the oppopsite sex?' And `What is the Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet?'
-
- The Encyclopedia Galactica defines the "Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet"
- as a mostly interesting attempt by the EFF to bring knowledge to the people.
- The marketing division of Sirius Cybernectics Corporation defines the "Big
- Dummy's Guide to the Internet" as `Your Electronic Online Pal Who's Fun To
- Be With.' The Texinfo editor of "Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet" (aka
- "bdgtti.texi") defines it as `The Best Stuff I've Been Involved In Since
- Breakfast.'
-
- Curiously enough, an edition of the Encyclopedia Galactica that had the
- good fortune to fall through a time warp from a thousand years in the future
- defined the "Big Dummy's Guide to the Internet" as a mostly interesting but
- useless attempt by the EFF to bring knowledge to the people...?
