Long before the Internet, there was another "network
of networks". Since the time before humankind emerged, it has connected
every continent with multi-branched pathways. Information flows on it's
natural conduits....in raging torrents and also in stagnant trickles. Without
modems, fiber-optic cables, or access providers, the earth speaks to itself,
sending messages about the position of the sun and moon, the passage of
seasons, the birth and death of glaciers. No electricity is required, just
another basic medium, water, that forms the rivers, bays and oceans of the
original network of networks: the WetNet.
