quote: At Uni some boffins wrote software way, way before Windows that would respond to any question in a seemingly intelligent, but actually random, manner!
In fact it was an computer programme called Eliza that I remember did exactly that! quote: ELIZA is a computer program by Joseph Weizenbaum, designed in 1966, which parodied a Rogerian therapist, largely by rephrasing many of the patient's statements as questions and posing them to the patient. Thus, for example, the response to "My head hurts" might be "Why do you say your head hurts?" The response to "My mother hates me" might be "Who else in your family hates you?" ELIZA was named after Eliza Doolittle, a working-class character in George Bernard Shaw's play Pygmalion, who is taught to speak with an upper class accent. Thats the Wikipedia entry. I remember a cut down version being made available for the RML 380Z - very convincing! Paul

Yes, but I think R is ahead. It's probably due to his charming smile and upbeat personality. I still have lots to learn from him.

Before region2 points out this typo, that should read “beat up personality”. I still have lots to learn from him.

HEY LEXIE!  Really great to see you pop in! Having heard about the wild fire trouble down under a little while back, I was concerned for you. How are you and your family? Still 2 rugrats or more? Have you retired from ebay? I've noticed you're not listing as often as you've done in the past. You need to pop in more often!  Jabbergah

Yes some smart aleck comments and demeaning post that serious people have made. these 2 offer no meaning in their answers.Yes Rick and Region2 you have to go
First, I still think that Rick and Region2 are the same person. Anyway, if they are "booted", I would miss the R & R2 show which is infinitely better than any talk radio show.

If that doesn't cause region2 to start doing drugs again, nothing will.

Your arsenal looks empty, region2. I’ll send you ammunition. What caliber pea does your shooter take?
