It sounds like a very uneducated person trying to explain how things works. I think we better stick with "highway" than Postal Service.

...that makes it easier for us to float as we are sold down river.

No wonder they believed the WMD story.

Not surprising...

...just depressing that our laws are being shaped by such ignorance. Still, I suppose this is nothing new.

This just reinforces my opinion to never align with any particular politician or position.

 Oh Lord!

Teddy should stick to buying bridges that lead to nowhere in his frigid state. Dear Lord, rid us of this fool.

It's sad that there are so many incompetent people that are deciding the fate on something they have no clue about.

They played the audio from his ramblings on This Week in Tech. It was CLASSIC! He sounds like he has no idea what he is talking about and is just trying to recite from memory something a Telco told him as they were putting money in his pocket.

 Mr. Uninformed tells you how something works!

Wooooow! This really should be a new show on Comedy Central. Just have a bunch of politicians explain how various objects of which they know nothing about other than what is told to them by interns or spoon fed by various PACs/Contributors.

Talk about not wanting to see sausage made!

Time to make your crazy rant somewhere else

Ted Stevens should be put in a nursing home. A few other senators should go to one as well.

Scary But True

Senator Stevens splains the internets:

"I just the other day got, an internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday and I just got it yesterday. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the internet commercially. […]

"They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the internet. And again, the internet is not something you just dump something on. It’s not a truck. It’s a series of tubes."
You can hear the full audio in all its frightening details here.

Stevens is not only commenting on key issues like net neutrality without understanding the issue, he’s shaping the government’s policy.

Huh?

What kind of slow ass pipe does this clown have?
WTF kind of computer does he have connected to it?

My God! I can download from Usenet(when idle, connection is maxed!) and still surf here at DSLR and email or whatever.

My machines are smart enough to take care of whatever I ask them to do, even when I have multiple connections running to different area of the net.

Processor(thingy that does the work) never goes over 50% when downloading *AND* general use. Processor is a 735 Dothan... many others out there that have lots more cojones than this one, so I know I'm not the only person that can and does do multi-tasking.
Or am I?

THE MACHINE prioritizes what has access and how much - hasn't screwed up yet!
Don't fu** with the pipe, leave it alone, my machines can figure out what to do with it!

DUHHH!!!!!

Here's a News Flash for Teddy boy: there are services where you can DOWNLOAD movies, and if your machine has any balls & connected to a pipe worth a fu**, the movie will get there(here) pretty quick!

What a piece of work!

Re: Low Level of Education

Please tell me the reason that the reason his message seemed so garbled and incoherent was because I'm having a stroke or an aneurysm. I don't want to accept the fact that it's the way it was written, because that's just depressing.

clogged tubes

I think Teddy needs to call a damn plumber to unclog all his clogged tubes...maybe a maid to clean the cobwebs upstairs.

Discrimination

Best Line:
"Until you can define (discrimination), I am opposed to the concepts that are applied by your recomendation"

Um... by nature Net neutrality is that a single service is not treated any differantly than another. I thought that was pretty simple.
