    Default README.TXT

    http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1855

    I find it facinating how a document written over a decade ago still has a lot of value today.

    Some of it is very dated; I don't think all of you will understand the context of the time this was written. I daresay some of you think that the world wide web *is* the internet! However, as a source of netiquette, it is a very valuable read and won't take too very long.

    I learned what "tl;dr" means the other day. I think it applies here.

    A good rule of thumb would be not to send a file [Over email] larger than 50 Kilobytes
    and now I hate myself.

    - Remember that talk is an interruption to the other person. Only
    use as appropriate. And never talk to strangers.
    Sorry guys I can't talk to you any more. Netiquette said you're a bad influence.

    - Never send chain letters via electronic mail. Chain letters
    are forbidden on the Internet.
    People need to read this and obey, now.

    I bet the readme.txt file stored in the directory where the internet was installed just reads as "l.o.l"

    YOU ALL FAIL AT NETIQUETTE.

    btw, I've heard that it's easier to read caps than lowercase.

    Tell me! What civilization am I destroying by resting my elbows on the forking dinner table!?
