    WHY THE INTERNET IS LIKE A HUMAN SEX ORGAN......

    * The more people use it the bigger it gets.

    * If you play with it too much you can go blind.

    * You wouldn't believe the things people put in there!

    * Some people think they know how to move around in it, but they really
    can't interface.

    * In the long-distant past, its only purpose was to receive information
    considered vital to the survival of the species. Some people still think
    that's the only thing it should be used for, but most folks today use it for
    fun most of the time.

    * It has no conscience and no memory. Left to its own devices, it will
    just do the same damn dumb things it did before.

    * It provides a way to interact with other people. Some people take this
    interaction very seriously, others treat it as a lark. Sometimes it's hard
    to tell what kind of person you're dealing with until it's too late.

    * If you don't apply the appropriate protective measures, it can spread
    viruses.

    * It has no brain of its own. Instead, it uses yours. if you use it too
    much, you'll find it becomes more and more difficult to think coherently.

    * You think you're just playing around, but you can get involved in
    something that takes 9 months to finish.

    * The part you see is actually just the front end of a very complicated
    system.

    * If you're not careful what you do with it, it can get you in big
    trouble.

    * It has its own agenda. Somehow, no matter how good your intentions, it
    will warp your behaviour. Later you may ask yourself "why on earth did I do
    that?"

    * Some folks have it, some don't. Those who have it think that those who
    don't have it are somehow inferior. Those who don't have it may agree that
    it's a nifty toy, but think it's not worth the fuss that those who do have
    it make about it. Still, many of those who don't have it spend all their
    time trying to access it.

    * Once you've started playing with it, it's hard to stop. Some people
    would just play with it all day if they didn't have work to do.

    * Some people believe in security and avoiding penetration but others
    believe it should be open to all comers.

    * Both are subject to abuse by hardware dongles.
