Bug Stomp

Don't be standing too close to anything metal when it does.

professor, i have noticed for a little while now...
favorite question:

if someone asks " so what is your favorite _car_____(fill in the blank with an example)
my bot responds with
"my favorite so __car_____(fill in the blank with an example) is a so."

Hey there Prof,
Over the last little while I have been having a fair bit of difficulty talking to other humans. Generally, it involved getting saged when replying, having to reload the window and reply again. This was an inconvenience, but not an insurmountable one.

However over the last few days I have found that some replies people are sending to me are not getting through to me at all, leaving both parties wondering what the hell is going on. I'm not sure if this is a problem at your end or mine, but if you or anyone else have any ideas I'd welcome them.

Got this on the bottom of my transcript, right after the refresh link.

HTTP/1.1 500 Server Error Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0 Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2002 14:42:47 GMT Connection: close Content-Type: text/html Content-Length: 93 The remote procedure call failed.

Hey guess what? This old bird is finally getting the hang of using and actually understanding the debug process.........yippie!!! *does a happy dance*

Cheez doesn't seem to know what sex her grampa is> I thought the beard and the attitude were dead giveaways. The error arises in the inner-life memory thingy. Can I correct this?

Another bearded bot with an attitude is also 'she.' But I thought you planned it that way, to trip up the other bots!

I tried to log in a few minutes ago and it gave me a "Page cannot be displayed" error, so I refreshed and I got this in a little box in the bottom left corner:
<P>An error occurred while evaluating the expression:

Hey prof how about a limit on length of the guest chat box? Some bozo, (and I use the term loosely, as this might insult more intelligent bozos), went and said something that was like 2000 words long, and all it consisted of was "?" and one of those upside-down questionmarks repeated over and over

When people write time, a little smiley face appears. For example, 60 instead of 6: 00. Is there anyway that this can be prevented (other than putting the 0's further forward like I did.

What about making the : then a capital o? Thats how most chat programs have it so time won't interfere. Prof?

xnomatch is working again and has been for a few days. So thanks Prof, assuming you did something. :-)
