    Yes, my English could be butter. I was hoist with my own paté and turn to pissers.

    Perhaps he just wanted to boast about his braille pc display.

    Talking Re : Al Gore or the Unabomber?

    Did Al Gore say it? Or was it the Archaic Apostate?

    It may be more difficult to decide than you think. Each quote below is either from Al Gore's speech at the National Assn. of Black Owned Broadcasters or from AdrianII.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    There may or may not be an equal number of quotes from both.


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------



    We've all run out of cliches to describe how exciting the communications industry is right now. There's never been a time like this. Communications technologies are transforming your workplace, your work force, your products, and your companies . . . offering a unique opportunity to pioneer minority ownership in the next generation of products and services that use the nation's airwaves.

    1 ( ) Gore () AdrianII



    Make no mistake, the obstacles are enormous, because the figures on minority ownership in broadcasting and telecommunications are a disgrace. No other word will do. We should understand that.

    2 ( ) Gore () AdrianII



    There are 490 minority-owned telecommunications firms--out of about 98,000. That's one-half of 1%. There are approximately 31 minority-owned TV stations--out of 1,155. That's less than 3%, and only a few of those are high-powered facilities in major markets. And yes, there are about 292 minority-owned radio stations--out of more than 10,000. That's less than 3% also. Of the 7,500 cable operators in America, nine are minority-controlled. I had to get out my calculator on that one; it's about one-tenth of 1%.

    3 ( ) Gore () AdrianII



    The revenue generated by these personal communications licenses could amount to 1 1/2 times the gross revenues of all the African-American business on Black Enterprise magazine's Top 100 Black-Owned Businesses list.

    4 ( ) Gore () AdrianII



    You know, there are those who think the information highway is a long, straight, and wide road. The fact is, it's a winding road. At points it goes uphill steeply, at some points through patches of fog. There are on-ramps and off-ramps, and they're not always well marked. There are dangerous stretches.
    Yogi Berra said one time, "When there's a fork in the road, take it." I wish it were that easy.
