So is it Philippe's question, IceBlaZe?
The "acronym" BASIC wasn't really an acronym at all; rather it is a "bacronym". That is, it was written in all-capitals, so people assumed it was an acronym, even though it wasn't, and tried working out what it stood for. Several variants emerged, the most popular being "Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code".
Similiarly, apparently IBM once tried to tell people that the term BYTE stood for "Binary-Yoked Table Entity" or some such nonsense, presumably because they couldn't handle the idea of such a serious term having sprung from humour. Thankfully such nonsense never caught on.

From memory there were 3 universities involved in the states.
ARPA net which started as a research project about 1967?
And from there DARPA net about 1969? Which lead the specifications and development of TCP/IP protocol for NORAD.
At a guess
Michigan
MIT
Without looking it up I just don't know?

well this is a kind of broad question. You could give it to somewhere in west London for inventing packet swtiching or to MIT for email.

WHAT? MIT didn't have a damn thing to do with the creation of the internet/ARPAnet. It was three Universities in the western states: Stanford, UCLA, and the University of Utah (my school).
Excerpt from: http://webopedia.internet.com/TERM/A/ARPANET.html
The precursor to the Internet, ARPANET was a large wide-area network created by the United States Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA). Established in 1969, ARPANET served as a testbed for new networking technologies, linking many universities and research centers. The first two nodes that formed the ARPANET were UCLA and the Stanford Research Institute, followed shortly thereafter by the University of Utah.

MIT is known for making the @ symbol IIRC...actually I doubt most of the places who are rumoured to have 'invented' the internet actually did - I expect it's some guy in a small uni somewhere who no one's ever heard of who got all the credit taken away from him but ho hum.

While I have not provided anything of value as yet to establish my standing in this 'community', I cannot stand silent any longer in the face of the personal affont against me by "Filleep".
. I have held back til now out of respect for the friendship that Pesoloco has shown to him.
. He has wasted that 'community value' by repeatedly proving himself to be an Arrogant Moron.
. No one believes he is really only fourteen or fifteen years old, yet anyone can be convinced that he is limited by a sophmoric mental developement. That, coupled with the audacity to presume that His Word is sufficient to quiet any voice he deems "Annoying" puts him right on the line for the definition of Psycopathy.
Point One: "Filleep" does not know the proper use of simple common terms such as "Spam", as used on the Internet. Conclusion: He is a Moron.
Point Two: "Filleep" can't provide anything of more value to the community than the seeping pustulant excreta from his oral sphincter. Raise your hand, please if your life was enhanced by the knowledge of which mayonnaise he preferred, or any of the other 1853 drool samples he has graced us with. Hmmm, no hands? why not? Which brings up:
Point Three: Diety? Now, ~that~ is hubris! Does voluminous output = Godliness? Then there is a bull I'd like to show you, because his pen is hip-deep with 'Output'.

Conclusion? The Voice of the community is the one that matters most here. Is "Filleep" an Arrogant Moron, or is "Sooky" a (oh! the shame!) "Spammer"?

Or, (C), Does anyone care?

That is the major issue, and related to general good behavior on the Internet. 'Netiquette' has long ago established that 'Flaming' is not much fun for any but those engaged in it, thus, generally bad behavior.
Do Not Insult Others. No one wants to hear that they are 'annoying', or a 'poopiehead'.
Know Your Limits. If you are a child or a Newbie, don't go to the deep end of the pool. There is always another Netizen who is more easily insulted than you, and they may also be more vicious in their retribution, with DoS, backdoor entry, 'social engineering' and other techniques that will leave the young newbie wondering why he can't boot his 'puter anymore.
There is also always someone more stoopider, but if they approach with a reasonable measure of humilty, they may be able to get good advice and encouragement from those more experienced.

This has been a very fine Quiz. I am sorry to ruin the fun for others here.
My point has been that some children need to learn that their actions will have repercusions that will follow them to where they do not want.
Often, bad consequence will end when appropriate humility is displayed.
