Sir Tim Berners-Lee


This may sound daft and cheesy but I wish to personally give a big Thank you to Sir Tim Berners-Lee,KBE, FRS.

Sir Timothy is the inventor of the World Wide Web and director of the World Wide Web Consortium, which oversees its continued development.
It says so on:

Sir Tim Berners Lee

If you have a low boredom point you may switch off now and make yourself a nice cup of tea or coffee or indulge in whatever else may give you a quick and free source of pleasure.

He could have made himself a multi-billionaire but chose to make the world wide web free of charge.This has helped the world to develop at a much faster pace and has helped to improve the life of millions of people.

Because everyone who has access to a computer and the internet can communicate quickly and easily throughout the world it has made it possible for people in minority groups to make contacts and help and support each other.

As a tranny it has meant that I have been able to make friends over the internet with transgendered people and to find that I am not the only tranny in the village and that I am not a weird freak. I may be considered a well-wired freak or even a weird freak by others but by being accepted by other transgendered people I have stopped being racked by guilt and self-loathing. I now accept myself for what I am and consider myself a healthy well-balanced individual.

A very big Thank you Sir Tim. Bless you.

O.K. That was very cheesy. I must be getting old. Must get out more. Now, where's my collection of fine art paper ? Actually , someone sent me an e-mail with definitions of " You know when you are old when...". The one I liked best was " You know when you are old when you take off your bra and all the wrinkles suddenly disappear form your face " At least that won't happen to me.
