I have taken to capitalizing Internet like I capitalize God.) has excited me ever since we got instant desktop access at work and didn't have to go into the special room with the special computer after having convinced the gatekeeper our research was worth those old by-the-minute AOL charges. Boy, those were the days, huh? No, I was not around for hot type, though.
