[ih] When the words Internet was design to survive a nuclear war appeared for the first time?

[Alejandro Acosta]

Hello All,

  Today I was reading some news about Internet and in one of them I
found the phrase (that all of you have listened before):  "Internet
(ARPANET) was intended to survive a nuclear war", however, as far as I
know, this is kind of a myth, right?, ARPANET was intended as a research
network and the "war" part if very far away from the thuth.

  My question would be: when the words "designed to survive a nuclear
war" appeared for the first time?


Thanks,


Alejandro,
