True, but pot is fully legal (up to a certain amount) in Colorado and Washington. Colorado has the most liberal marijuana laws in the world, even more liberal than the Netherlands. The Netherlands is a UN member state and in order to get that status, it had to ratify the 1971 Convention on Psychotropic Drugs, which explicitly bans marijuana. That's why it must keep pot illegal on the books while ignoring the law for small amounts in practice. False. Tim Berners-Lee invented the world wide web. The internet is much more than that. People were using email, usenet and FTP on the internet in the 1970s and 80s. Various protocols were created in the United States, United Kingdom, and France, but the first connection that implemented the TCP/IP protocols was between SRI (at Stanford) and UCLA, in 1969. That was the first link of the modern day internet, and it started in the United States.
