"Seattle, the internet capitol of Washington State".

I think the national capitol is a bit further south. Try Silicon Valley.

In December 1995, the Redomond, WA "visionary" Bill Gates published a book called "The Road Ahead". Somehow he managed to do this without ever mentioning the internet in the entire book.

And where was Kleiner Perkins in all of this? In 1994 John Doerr was running around saying "Computers that are not connected are worthless!" and people could hardly understand his meaning.

Cheers,
