Ok, all I can say is HOLY COW! I think I made a very interesting discovery! See if you can guess how this PF bot does this:
You: which actor do you like?
Bot: Any actor that is a scene-stealer gets my vote.
You: which computer do you like?
Bot: Oh! Do you remember the computer that was the number cruncher in that movie called 'The Guinness,' or something like that? Now THAT was a computer!
You: You: which computer do you like?
Bot: Any number cruncher that's not too good-for-nothing or brittle. I'm not too picky. Other than the 'good-for-nothing or brittle' part.
You: which vegetable do you prefer?
Bot: Any vegetable that is a spaghetti squash gets my vote.
You: which stone do you like?
Bot: The only good kind of stone is a pebble.
You: which airplane do you prefer?
Bot: I can't remember the name... do you recall that airplane that Time Magazine named 'biplane of the Year' in 2002?
Hint: no xfavorites were used in these examples.
Answer coming soon...

Here's the answer... nested plugins!! I just took a chance to see if it would work, and it does in this particular case (with a few wobbles here and there). Here is Little Mu's test case:
Keyphrase: (which|what) (noun) do you (prefer|like)
Response: The only good kind of (key2) is a (typeof-(key2)-n).
What's happening is that (key2) first gets expanded to the noun that was input, then it gets tacked onto typeof-. Then the whole thing is looked up in wordnet. Some words work better than others, of course.
The main problem is with synonym substitution, which occurs before the lookup. If the noun is replaced by more than one word, a space appears in the typeof- lookup, wordnet gets confused, and it sort of breaks. Most of the time, it works.
Feel free to use the concept, just please use your own wording in your responses.
I'd be interested to see any similar experiments anyone else comes up with.

I'm new but I think I have the swing of things pretty good 
I want to do something with a search where I can tell my bot a knockknock joke. Basicly I have the keyword "knock-knock" that my bot will reply "who is there" with a seek of xnomatch (cos it cannot know what I am going to say at design time)... so far so good. The problem is I want it to repeat back the content of xnomatch and add "who"... I tried prekey and post key to no avail. Can this be done?

I get the error:
Your seek cannot be "*" or begin with "*". For a catch-all seek, use "xnomatch"
(forgot to mention I tried that

woo hoo! your discovery with the plugins above gave me an idea... it works if I put:
seek=(noun)
only if it is a noun though... can probably fix that easly. Thanks for the help!!!
transcript to follow:
msim11: knock-knock
Anne Intertech: who is there
msim11: airplane
Anne Intertech: airplane who
msim11: airplaine it works with nouns!
Anne Intertech: OMG! ROFLMAO!!!
