German Net Use Exploding!

BERLIN--The number of private Internet users in Germany soared 60 percent to 6.6 million adults this year compared to 1997, according to a study released today.

Public broadcasters ARD and ZDF said the increase in private Internet use had caused the heaviest online traffic to shift to between 6 p.m. and 9 p.m. weekdays from late mornings.

ARD and ZDF noted that this new focus on the evening hours was leading to greater competition between television and the Internet.

The typical German online user is young, male, educated, and employed. Women still comprise a minority of Internet users, ARD and ZDF said.
Among Germans 14 years old and over, 10.5 percent use the Internet.

The study's results were based on a survey of 1,006 people.

the pain when you here the word "Bird".

In time perhaps, you will see me as someone who overcame
a drowning hatred for the forces arrayed against him,
and found hope in the prospect of a new day when realization
of a common goal will heal all the pain many have suffered
in a conflict ingrained into our psyches.>

Someone get me my wading boots. Its getting too deep in here for me. This guy covers his shorts and so he tries to pump it up. I think its a safe bet that bird will flip again.

We don't need that type on our thread.
