It's accurate as far as my recollection goes back and Klienrock was a part of
the team of ARPAnet.. Really though, all sorts of thing, to include FidoNet
and the old BBS's made up what we have today, each with it's own unique
contribution. The net is not the last I feel either, it's just more popular
than the others and more commonplace.

found one sitting on the home page of Leonard Kleinrock, self-proclaimed
Inventor of the Internet:

I've heard that UCLA hosted Arpanet node #1 (I've also heard that BBN was
supposed to host node #0, but their IMP didn't work), but I've never heard
of Kleinrock....
