This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.

To the original poster, there is another collection of memes (some might even/one day be true) on the 'Future of the Internet' lecture series, on Stanford's 'iTunes U' area - lecture 3 is on Internet Economics and touches on the history of this (mis?)-quote ?

Best wishes
