When they say sextillion, do they mean paltry American 10^21 or are they talking about the Real Men British sextillions at 10^36?

The "internet" has been around in other forms much longer than 1981.

The World Wide Web was created by CERN. Not the internet. There is a distiction that should be drawn. The WWW is an application, that runs ON the internet.

The Internet came from the U.S. Department of Defense's Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPANET) back in the 1960s

The did not "invent the Internet". Mr Lee invented WWW (i.e. HTTP and HTML). Internet was invented by ARPA, kind of earlier.
