>On another subject, just to be fair, since he told us via the media that he brought the internet to the world, why isn't he being nominated for worldpeace via world communications???? :o) ROFL...

JIC you don't know what a silly charge that is, the exact quote is "During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet." At the time, we had the ARPANET. Gore was (among) the first in Congress to understand what a globally available computer network could mean and to push for it.
