Riffing on the changes for Aunt Reet courtesy of Google, we got Treet
like spam (which was on the Arpanet, too, from the moment the first
guy realized he could send a message to everybody on the network), or
maybe it's just a retard for which they are producing that virtual
Treet TV which could be what the Apranet has evolved into by now
instead of following the more serious sounding curricula of REET08,
then we get dramatic black and white and shades of grey with Dr. Reet
and Shine, and when it comes to answering the question, Which Reet?
maybe it helps to know there's Ant werp Reet, too.
