Because there's always something that's forgotten but is internet  
accessible, because there are always questions that can be answered  
much much more quickly with net access, because someone will  
inevitably show something really cool that will spawn conversations  
and downloads, because sometimes some of us need to do some work  
(albeit quietly) while the meeting goes on, because some of us are  
addicted, because some of us need bus schedules, because some of us  
don't have iPhones, because it settles arguments about who's right and  
who's wrong, because it starts arguments...wait, um...because, because  
of the wonderful things it does.
