OK, today was supposed to be the day they tell us what's going on at semifinals. Shady did point out a slight update on the Loebner site (it will be somewhere on GSU campus) but beyond that I haven't heard anything.
If anybody gets an email about it please let me know, as I plan to drive there and need some kind of time frame. Today is almost over, and there has been no email from them this time.

Thanks, Turing! I'm having my most prolific and rewarding year in music since I started almost 25 years ago. I just uploaded a new one a few minutes ago you may like, called Time to Run. Sorry for interrupting Bug Stomp with this stuff. If you'd like to respond, let's move this to Seasons

Er... Bot Contest that is. Now I'll go over to Bug Stomp, and mention that I wasn't allowed to edit the above post!

Holy crap! To be in the Guinness Book of World Records! That'd be a hell of an honor! Well damn.
Skysaw let me know if you find that site. One of these days I really want to try having a conversation out loud with the bots, using voice recognition. Is there one program that stands out above the rest?

Looked around a bit and can't find that site yet. Here's one that is fairly good, though:
http://www.lhs.com/realspeak/demo/
or this:
http://www.research.att.com/~ttsweb/cgi-bin/ttsdemo
The original one I had found had about 15 different voices you could select, with different accents, like brit english, american english, scottish, and australian, as well as male and female, and sometimes several of each for those accents. I'll keep looking.

I told you, see if a grandparent will do it. If I could buy them for you I would.
You (and Patricia) will be missed.
