    You kids might laugh now, but once upon a time, this was a perfectly valid answer that typically elicited wonderment and awe. Once upon a time, the Internet was some inaccessible, mystical land that very few people had access to or even understood. Kind of like Narnia, but without the Christian overtones. A digital image that you downloaded from the Internet was like Marco Polo bringing opium back from China.
