Hi Gary. I'm going to be controversial once more - 'cos I can be - lol ;-) There would be no Google if it wasn't for a Brit called Tim Berners-Lee who 'invented' the world wide web. As I understand it he came up with the idea of html and domains and stuff. Before that the internet was just a boring network protocol ( oh it still is too when you want it to be ) . Touche ! Graham
