I think it has become kind of an inside joke among geeks to call the internet the "interweb", as a way to make fun of non-tech savvy people. I have never heard anyone say "intertubes" before, though, except about a tire that you want to use to float down a river.

I cannot believe this thread is still alive. More amazing is that the loon who started it is brave or stupid enough to come back to the thread after he has been so discredited that an ordinary person would not only slink away in shame but sell their house, their computers and all their smart phones and move to a cave. In Argentina.

Speaks, I think, to a higher order of personality disorder than we usually see hereabouts, eh?
