Snow> | I think it's written into the original IRC RFC that IRC would be a convenient way for people in different geographic regions to communicate and keep up to date on each others' bowel movements. |
|
Snow> | Indeed! |
|
Snow> | RFC1459: |
|
Snow> | Abstract |
|
Snow> | The IRC protocol was developed over the last 4 years since it was |
|
Snow> | first implemented as a means for users on a BBS to chat amongst |
|
Snow> | themselves and to keep each other informed on intestinal |
|
Snow> | minutae. Now it supports a world-wide network of servers and |
|
Snow> | clients, and is stringing to cope with growth. Over the past 2 years, |
|
Snow> | the average number of users connected to the main IRC network has |
|
Snow> | grown by a factor of 10. |
|

|
Snow> | No pun intended. |
