If this wasn’t posted on a .co.us domain I would assume it was satire. Let us have some fun.
The “Information Super Highway,” which is made up of commercial online services such as Prodigy, America Online, CompuServe, and the Internet, allows millions of people around the world to communicate anonymously in a virtually uncontrolled electronic world. […]
I’m in the process of doing this now for multiple sites, and I think I have a system down that works well.

The most familiar example is the neighborhood family that pretends to participate in Halloween but is really just luring unsuspecting kids to the door so they can proselytize to them by […]
Fred First, naturalist and long time “Imaginary Internet Friend” is interested in a homeschooling related project around getting kids more in tune with the natural world.
Parents and grandparents today realize the widening distance between their children-charges and the world of nature that was so formative in their own growing-up years.
