Cerf, on things he's learned. (Al Gore was right)
Al Gore had seen what happened with the National
Interstate and Defense Highways Act of 1956,
which his father introduced as a military bill.
It was very powerful. Housing went up, suburban
boom happened, everybody became mobile. Al was
attuned to the power of networking much more than
any of his elective colleagues. His initiatives
led directly to the commercialization of the
Internet. So he really does deserve credit.
