CALIFORNIA - In a freak router accident earlier this week, the minds and bodies of Internet kook Jim Fleming and Internet pioneer Vint Cerf were exchanged. The mind of Jim Fleming is now inside of the body Vint Cerf, and vice-versa. Scientists are baffled by the event, but suspect a misconfigured ATM card. Respected Internet operator Avi Freedman commented, "The implications of this event for the future of the Internet are staggering, I just hope we can develop and control this new technology before hackers begin to exploit it.
