From here and there on the Internet,* here's the gnus. . . .* Roentgen says "Internet" is not capitalized, but I must see proof before I change! Proof, do you hear me? PROOF!

Wherever trouble raises its ugly head, there I shall be, like a thief in the night, removing the uppercase "I" from internet and replacing it with a lower case one.
"internet" is not capitalized.
"Internets", such as George Dubya has access to, should be.
Hope this clears up any confusion.
i can has no Internet?
The Internet is capitalized because it is a proper noun, being the global computer network that'll one day rain missiles down upon us, its creators. This is separate from any old computer network hanging around doing its thing.
It's like the difference between god and God: One is the generic term for a deity, whereas the other is a specific deity worshipped by Christians.
"The Internet is capitalized because it is a proper noun, being the global computer network that'll one day rain missiles down upon us, its creators."
I'm still trusting in Sarah Connor to save us.
By the way, Happy Birthday, E. A.
I just wonder if "skynet" should be in lower case....
Thanks! Personally, I like to call it "Christmas in March".
And Skynet should definitely be capitalized. You capitalize personal nouns, and what's more personal than a sentient computer out to kill us all?

And let me add that I'm glad we handled this in a mature fashion.
