The children polled are a representative sampling of Israel’s youth, more Jews than non-Jews and more families from a higher socio-economic standing than families from lower ones. The study did not include youths from the ultra-Orthodox Jewish public.
The study first found that 47 percent of the youths polled have a private internet connection in their bedrooms. Sixty percent of those polled said they had viewed unclean material online. Their parents on the other hand had a slightly more naïve view, only 16 percent said they believed their children had accessed to unclean websites.
Sixty-two percent said their parents were clueless about their internet activities.
It is completely logical for Al Gore to claim he exposed the internet.
After all, didn’t he work for the President that exposed the intervesh?

A computer network is when a 2 or more computers are connected.
An Intranet is when lots of company computers are internally connected.
The Internet is all the computers on the globe that accept public traffic.
Now you know what I invented. I invented the computer, or the public, or the traffic, or maybe a little bit of each.
Will you vote for me next time?
Big deal. Today its the internet, 50 years ago Jewish and non-Jewish prostitutes were openly propositing young people on 7th avenue (remeber the simon and garfunkel song “the boxer”?).
What does internet mean?

Is blogging here a business purpose?
It would be instructive if a survey was also carried out in the Haredi community. I wonder how different the figures would be?
Nu, so what else is new?
