Also: still no hebrew term for the "web". Unlike "interent" and many other English/Latin/Greek words, web is actually very short, and thus quite easy to use. Even though many people (including the author or editor of the above-mentioned story) still confuse the "web" with "the internet". (Eli Marmor once proposed ост: (Mem Samekh Ayin), the hebrew acronyms of Maarag Sovev Olam. IT is a direct translation of WWW and a simple words, but Hebrew doesn't like acronyms, I figure.) -- Tzafrir Cohen mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir ================================================================To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
