It appears that Andrew Sullivan via Internet-history <ajs at crankycanuck.ca> said:
>The Internet is an internet just as the Constitution is a constitution and the King is a king.

Technically you are of course correct, but I suspect the difference is that the
people who use the Chicago Manual of Style encounter many countries that have
kings, and many states that have constitutions, but unless you are a networking
nerd, you only encounter one internet.

This is not a fight we are going to win.
