And what's this about you taking two years to be born?
I bet you could make music out of fractal patterns!

Onyx,
It's not too difficult to make a program that spits out music that sounds vaguely like Mozart, for example, but quite a different thing to have one actually *compose* music, as opposed to merely plagerizing music from one style at the microscopic level, and rearranging things until it sounds new.
All the math in the world will get you not far in music theory. I should know, I used to tutor the subject at a conservatory.

Whatever that was about two years, I'm sure it didn't refer to me. I've only been here at PF since May.
Any German speakers? If not, I will attempt to read this thing to my mom over the phone and see if she can decipher it.

Hmmm I got a friend who could translate, unfortunately he's prolly not online.
Bleah just checked, he must be (a) working or (b) sleeping. Or, knowing him, maybe both.

Fred translated it himself, and it turns out that mother/birth/two years thing was Abe's mother, who had a very drawn-out conversation with that other lady about breast-feeding. He was breastfed for two years, and she believes that made him smarter, I think.
Fred, would you mind posting the translation or providing a link? It's a lovely translation you did, far better than Babelfish, but I don't want to post it without your permission.
Mom's going to send the article to our relatives in Germany, 'brain damage' and all.

i know this was mention b4, but i was wondering if PF was going to have it's own contests? Then when you win something like funniest bot award or something, they could give you something to put by your name to show for, then more people will talk to you and stuff!
Yup, I'd like to do that. Help me come up with categories..
