Yeah, but it's not all inclusive and that's the impression that 
Cailliau gives with that statement. Even so, it is pretty amazing.

The other one that has come into its own is wikipedia. I know it's 
not seen as the be all and end all, but it's pretty darn good. It 
grew even faster, I think. You can find out the most obscure 
information there and links to source material and references.
