	Vinton Cerf, the father of the Internet, looks back at it's remarkable growth
		Vinton Cerf, who could claim to have invented the Internet without becoming a national punch line, recently offered an optimistic view of the online future — as well as sharing a look back at the Internet's remarkable growth.
		Cerf joked that "while I can't guarantee that will be enough," he estimates that 28 bits falls "just short" of being enough to house an address for every star in the Milky Way.
		This trend may be a trough, Cerf said, noting that cellular and digital phones have maintained a healthier growth rate and established a higher penetration rate: Half of all U.S. consumers use wireless devices such as Palms, pagers, and cell phones, while slightly more than one-third access the Internet.

		Cerf is still known for his impeccable style.
		Cerf recalls, "We were just rank amateurs, and we were expecting that some authority would finally come along and say, 'Here's how we are going to do it.' And nobody ever came along." (Cerf in Abbate, 73)
		Cerf recalls, "Around this time Bob started saying, 'Look, my problem is how I get a computer that's on a satellite and a computer on a radio net and a computer on ARPANET to communicate uniformly with each other without realizing what's going on in between?'"(Cerf in Hafner & Lyon, 235).
