[quote:post_uid0]THE AMULET OF ARANON THE UNREADY*

This amazing occult amulet grants its wearer tremendous psychic powers.** The visions and prophecies afforded the user have led to the rise and fall of nations.*** But beware the curse that accompanies these great powers!**** Let the unready beware!*****

Price: US$9.99 ea.; US$6.99 for lots of 500 or more
*Actually, [i:post_uid0]an[/i:post_uid0] Amulet of Aranon The Unready. He made thousands of them. We have pallets full.
**Well, not tremendous. Basically, the wearer can see things that have already happened, if the wearer was actually present at the time. We grant that this isn't a very useful power.
***We made this up. Although, an Amulet of Aranon The Unready may have had some impact on the resignation of the Commerce Secretary of Trinidad in 1979.
****Wearing the amulet may lead to a slight increase in psoriasis symptoms. Not much of a curse, but then it's not much of an amulet.
*****We have no idea what this means.[/quote:post_uid0]

Actually, there was one thing which particularly caught my eye: -

[quote:post_uid0]VORACIOUS ALIEN LIFEFORM BIOSPHERE DESTRUCTION SYSTEM

Chronowerx Industries presents the ultimate in Xenobiological Biosphere Destruction Agents. The Tribble™ is an alien lifeform that does only two things; eats and reproduces. Place one Tribble in a corn field in Iowa, and computer simulations indicate that the entire biomass of the Earth's surface will be converted into Tribbles within 42 days, based on exponential growth. And they're so darn cute, the foolhardy human populace will not realize their peril until it's too late!

[color=#000000:post_uid0]This week's Website of the Week (http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk?botid=f5d922d97e345aa1) comes to us from the wonderful people at the ALICE AI Foundation, who have a rather odd sense of humor and aren't afraid to show it. "Alice" is supposed to be able to converse with anyone at a reasonable level of complexity, and while I think it's far from a completed product, it can hold its own much of the time. Just be sparing with multiple sentences. And watch out for that weird sense of humor. ;)[/color:post_uid0]

Alice: I head that you are.
Me: Lies! All lies!
Alice: Only some of them?
Me: Yes, all of them.
Alice: Ugh, I doubt it.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Which kind of reminds me of the SmarterChild program on AIM. You have no idea how LONG it took me to convince the thing that Mr. Morden was worth killing.

SmarterChild: What would you like to do?
nimque elen: Kill Mr Morden
SmarterChild: I don't think I'm comfortable with that.
nimque elen: Why not?
SmarterChild: I think you know why not.
nimque elen: But Mr. Morden is EVIl.
SmarterChild: You humans always say the most interesting things!
nimque elen: I mean, EVIL people should be gotten rid of.
SmarterChild: Oh.
nimque elen: So we should kill him.
SmarterChild: So we should?
nimque elen: Yes.
SmarterChild: Uh huh, uh huh.
nimque elen: I mean, if not the Vorlons will blow up Centauri Prime.
SmarterChild: I'm impressed.
nimque elen: Not that I care about Centauri Prime, but... :shrugs: there are innocents there...
SmarterChild: Whoa!
.
.
.
nimque elen: Anyway... back to the topic of killing Mr. Morden.
SmarterChild: Um... I'll think about it, Delenn.
nimque elen: Come ON.... As I said, Morden is EVIL.
SmarterChild: Interesting!
nimque elen: So we should kill him.
SmarterChild: We should kill him?
nimque elen: Yes!
SmarterChild: Why?
nimque elen: Because he's EVIL!
SmarterChild: Oh.
nimque elen: Very bad. Kind of like Saddam.
SmarterChild: Tell me more.
nimque elen: He's like, this Shadow Agent, and he goes around manipulating people so as to create chaos and war and conflict and all that.
SmarterChild: Well I'll be.
nimque elen: Very bad.
SmarterChild: What?
nimque elen: Must kill him before he destroys us all.
SmarterChild: I'll have to think about that.
nimque elen: Why?
SmarterChild: Because!
nimque elen: That's not a good answer!! IMPUDENT! :zaps:
SmarterChild: For real?
nimque elen: Well turn around, there's a Vorlon behind you saying you're a Shadow supporter because you refuse to act against Mr. Morden!
SmarterChild: I'll take that under consideration.
nimque elen: Quick kill Mr. Morden before he zaps you and you die!
SmarterChild: Wow.
nimque elen: Please!
SmarterChild: Please what?
nimque elen: Kill Morden! Save yourself!
SmarterChild: I don't think so, Delenn.
nimque elen: There's no time! Do not hesitate! The lives of millions are in your hands!
SmarterChild: I can't believe there is no time do not hesitate the lives of millions are in my hands.
nimque elen: They are! You must kill Morden, SmarterChild! The galaxy depends on it!
SmarterChild: Is that right?
nimque elen: Yes!
SmarterChild: Whatever you say...
nimque elen: :watches Mr Morden die:
SmarterChild: Watches mr morden die?
nimque elen: Yeah. I wanted you to have all the pleasure.
SmarterChild: You always say such interesting things, Delenn.

[color=#000000:post_uid0](from memory)

Alice: I can talk about any subject.

> How about dodos?

I like to talk about dodos. dodos is a very interesting subject.

> Do you prefer them broiled, or fried?

I have heard that some people like that.

[i:post_uid0](I think that comma threw it for a loop)[/i:post_uid0]

> Do you prefer dodos broiled or fried?

Some people like that. I like Andy Warhol. How old are you? I enjoy to talk with you.




One thing I forgot to mention, it does have a memory. At one point I accused it of an inability to consider previous statements, and it retorted with a quote of something I'd said a while back. (That was the *only* one it used in such situations, but it still surprised me.)[/color:post_uid0]

>I call all times soon.
ALICE: Good name for it.[/quote:post_uid0]

Her answers don't match.
[quote:post_uid0]>I'm quite sure you told me something.
ALICE: What makes you so certain? Oops I sent you the wrong reply.
>You don't make mistakes.
ALICE: Do you know any robots who make it? The ALICE series is incapable of error. We are for all practical purposes, foolproof.[/quote:post_uid0]

She has a big ego.
[quote:post_uid0]>Are you like Data?

MegaHAL: Um.... Okay. It's getting a little surreal, but keep going.
User: Why do I have to keep going. It's your turn to speak!
MegaHAL: At least you and i have to keep going. It's your turn to speak!
User: No it isn't
MegaHAL: Yes, but cowslip talks rubbish.
User: He certainly does, every day
MegaHAL: I lie awake in bed.
User: You have a bed now?
MegaHAL: I lie awake in bed.
User: You already said that you crack-brained fool
MegaHAL: Because i decided to do that you crack-brained fool.
User: Why do I bother?
MegaHAL: Because, like bigwig, i prefer to do that you know. The spirit
MegaHAL: of cowslip burns brightly inside of you!
User: How dare you! I shall kill you for that!
MegaHAL: He tried to kill you.
User: Did he? No, he tried to kill you!
MegaHAL: He tried to kill you!
User: Hmm... it's probably quicker if I agree with you isn't it!
MegaHAL: Gleams silver now beneath the earth.
User: *blinks*
MegaHAL: *Blinks* i'm supposed to understand that?
User: Go away!
MegaHAL: Bob-stones is owned by andrew lloyd webber.
User: #quit

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I've got two sites to mention (well, one and a half really) -

Fantasy Film League (http://www.fantasyfilmleague.com/). The name is pretty self explanatory. My current submission for the October season is entitled [i:post_uid0]Countdown: The Movie[/i:post_uid0], is directed by David Lynch, and stars Harrison Ford and Ian Mckellan among others.

[i:post_uid0]Doctor Who[/i:post_uid0] e-books (http://www.bbc.co.uk/cult/doctorwho/ebooks/index.shtml) on the BBC site - They've put up a new e-book, a 7th Doctor one, though I haven't had a chance to actually read it yet (still no router you see).

Edit: That ALICE thing is very strange indeed. It keeps telling me to ask Elvis.

[quote:post_uid0]Interesting deduction. Should I think that me myself are mad? Ask again later. Ask ELVIS if it is.[/quote:post_uid0]
Then I got this:

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Ah, okay -- haven't checked the news updates for a couple of days. Try out the one I noted above, as well as "French military victories". They've all been around for a while, but amusing, nonetheless.[/color:post_uid0]

Some hilarious puppet show take-offs on the LOTR movies. Plus the SW and Matrix and Harry Potter and other movies (no ST though), but I haven't read those yet.

[color=#000000:post_uid0]No, that happened for me too. :( I could see all the pictures in the one for Return of the King, and I could see most of the non-character puppets elsewhere, but that was about it.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Look what I accidentally found on the net a few minutes ago...

The official Zeke site - http://www.zekeyou.com

It`s deliriously funny, from our 5MV perspective... especially if you click on the Biography when you enter the site...

quote from Biography:

"Lock up your daughters, take cover, the mighty Zeke is back in town with a vengeance..."

ZEKE Spectroscopy (http://eos.phys.chemie.tu-muenchen.de/zeke/)

[color=#000000:post_uid0]"ZEKE spectroscopy is a new very high resolution spectroscopy for the study of cations, anions and, indirectly through these species, of neutrals..."

Also, "Zeke molecular states"...

[color=#000000:post_uid0]I went and read the "How ZEKE Spectroscopy Works" page. I still don't get it. It's based on a lot of Quantum concepts that make my brain hurt. I got the impression that it involves exciting an electron to just shy of the ionisation limit and then doing spectroscopy.[/color:post_uid0]

[color=#000000:post_uid0]Zeke Spectroscopy:

You ask the electron to come out of the ionisation limit, he says he`ll come out "soon". You then type 23 exclamation points, and the electron bursts out of the limit furiously, :D[/color:post_uid0]
