De'vID:
>> It's the "whole ball of wax".

<groan>  Except, of course, it's not:

>>>... {weQmoQnaQ} is not the same thing as the Internet. He said, 
>>>if he understands correctly, you can do many more things with the 
>>>Internet than just dealing with the {weQmoQnaQ}. 

So now, how about the joke?  Any ideas?

>>>I also asked him about the word *'Internet*. He said he thought
>>>that it was pretty funny that Terrans use that word. He laughed
>>>a little bit, as if there were some sort of a joke. But he didn't 
>>>elaborate.  I guess that's for another time.
