I unite two of the favourite subjects on photography mailing lists,

A cat could have invented the World Wide Web.
When the IBM PC was first introduced, I was using one of the first
examples - purchased at Sears in Chicago and shipped straight to
Ireland. At the same time I had a kitten named Clarissa who would
come into my office and sleep on top of the monitor, which was nice
and warm. Every hour or so she would climb down and stand on the edge
of the keyboard. Every time he spelt out exactly the same thing -
www. If only I had understood what she was trying to tell me, she
could have got there before Tim Berners-Lee.
