That would be mainstream tv.  Pure idiocy.
The internet is full of useful information, as most know.  It's just getting away from posting about synthol and viewing porn and gambling, that makes looking for this information difficult.

Had the internet not been born, this gold would never be seen.

Getbig is fine literature. I wouldn't have hesitated to use this forum as sources in a college paper.

The internet is the best human invention to date as far as I'm concerned.

Screw that......air conditioning blows everything out of the water.

Meh it's good and bad, we without doubt have a far wider span of knowledge. There's very little I don't know atleast the basics of, and if i don't I make an effort to know it within a week. However it's alot harder to get a quality education on something, because there are too many distractions and places to spend my time. Should i go to the gym, do school work, play guitar, learn a language, learn about business, read a book, watch a movie, or study etc. Were all becoming good at everything masters at nothing.
