    I was born before we landed on the moon. So could be.

    You do know the world has been around longer than 40 years, right?

          You mean to say that the internet existed during the heights of the Cold War era ?? But l remember reading in magazines how the world will get entangled by a virtual web, called the world wide web… I used to read such articles in 1994-95… And then finally l got a taste of the internet in '97 or '98…
