The Matrix

You know that sound that the modem makes when you're on a dial-up connection? Is that what the internet sounds like? Why do they have a speaker on the modem? You'd think they could just tell you if it's connected properly or not. I really don't know my internet sounds well enough to know if the internet is connected correctly or not. I'm not a robot.

In that case I am concerned about our future generations of children. With today's high speed internet connections, they will never have an opportunity to hear what the internet sounds like. I think this should be added to school curriculum. It could be part of history. They can have old computers and connect through dial-up like we had to. Dial-up internet is our generation's "walk 2 miles in a blizzard to get to school."
