US Council of Competitiveness:

"The information infrastructure of the 21st century will enable all Americans to access information and communicate with each other easily, reliably, securely, and cost effectively in any medium: voice, data, image or video, anytime, anywhere. This capability will enhance the productivity of work and lead to dramatic improvement in social services, education and entertainment."

Gore, 1994:

"I challenge you ... to connect all our classrooms, all of our libraries, and all of our hospitals by the year 2000."
