Karmapd:
In the particular example you give, you could write, "I find (key1) to be smelly."
More generally, though, There is a way, I think, although I haven't tested it, and it would be a lot of work (Do it on a small scale first, so that if it doesn't work, you won't have wasted a huge amount of effort). Take the plugin (noun) and expand it, and go through it, and for every noun that doesn't form its plural just by adding "s", put the singular into a new plugin, (noun-ising), and its plural into another new plugin, (noun-iplur)". [This way of doing it saves you the trouble of doing this for ALL nouns.] As I say, for testing purposes just do this with a few! Now, write, for wxample,
Do you like (noun-ising)
No, (key1) is smelly.
Do you like (noun-iplur)
No, (key1) are smelly
Do you like (noun)s
No, (key1)s are smelly.
Do you like (noun)
No, (key1) is smelly.
Now, give the last two keyphrases a lower rank than the previous two, so that the AIengine will use one of the last two only if the first two fail, and give the fourth a lower rank than the third.

P.S.: For example, if you say, "Do you like chicken?", the above would give you, "No, chicken is smelly," but if you say, "Do you like chickens?", it would reply, "No, chickens are smelly."
Also, you can use numbers and articles as clues. For example, "Do you like the (adjnoun)" could be followed by, "No, the (key1) is smelly."

Not necessarily. If someone asks "Do you like the Beatles?" the answer would be "No, the Beatles is smelly." However, you could make a plugin called (bandname) if there isn't one already, and make the keyphrase "do you like (bandname)" to deal with this possibility. Which would really make more sense anyway because then you could have responses unique to bands, like "Ugh, (key1) sounds like a cat on drugs." or "I've got every album (key1) ever recorded, even the foreign imports!"

Thanks a lot for your help, all!
Irina: That seems to make sense! I'll try it out, thanks for the tip!
Onyx Flame: Thanks for mentioning that! Don't think I'd have thought about it myself. A seperate bandname plugin is a good idea
Butterfly Dream: My bot can, at this point, only refer to the last sentence. Untill I can get him to carry a conversation, I think mentioning the (noun) has quite some added value. It makes it seem more like an answer rather than a chosen phrase from a list

How would you know what the last sentence will be? The first sentence might strike another key phrase, you never know what will be said to your bot!

Dear Friends:
Does anyone know how to get in touch with LapCat? I have a fairly important message for her, but it's not getting to her at the forge. Of course, you shouldn't give out her e-mail or anything, but could you forward a message?

Irina,
I went ahead and emailed LapCat to let her know you were trying to reach her, asked her to come here to the forum when she gets a chance, to check your post.
