Listen to Sen. Ted Stevens (R-Alaska) explain how the Internet works during his speech against Net Neutrality.

The Internet is a series of tubes. And if you don’t understand those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and its going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.

It is a bit disturbing that these are the people writing legislation for the Internet.
