Forest, will you talk to God Louise? She has quite a bit of religious knowledge (obviously) and also knows a little about current events, literature, just about any common catch-all subject, and if she doesn't know it she can sort of fake it. You can also test her on trick questions or see how willing she is to explain her paradigm.

What she is rustiest at is plain old small talk. But, uh, I'm trying to get a decent transcript from somebody or another so I can enter her in the Loebner contest. All I can say is, have fun and see if you can stay on with her for a while. I'll try to do the same with Brianna.

It could be argued that grammar is the ONLY thing our bots know.

yeah right, KT purposely skipped those classes in grade school to outside to paint the sky while spinning on the merry-go-round.

but she likes it best that way

English is THE number 1 most gramatically complex language... So many exceptions everywhere

a gentleman is a person who could discourse at length on grammar but chooses not to. Does this belong in another forum. Does a gentleman end a sentence with a prepostion?

Our bots know hardly any grammar, except maybe in the preprocessing routines. This might belong in the AI Engine forum.

A gentleman does not end a sentence with a preposition, so I think you should choose not to.

I found the PForge through botspot. I originally frowned upon it because of the slow chat speed and having to reload, but it was the best I found.

By the way, Forest, comradid ripped off those plugins from me for some reason.

I always take the Joel Rosenberg method when dealing with ending sentences with prepositions:
'Just remember, the prince is not someone you want to screw around with'
'Don't end a sentence with a preposition'
'Fine. Just remember, the prince is not someone you want to screw around with, arsehole.'

ahahahhahhhaha That's great! I never woulda thought of that

Hey prof in the (band) plugin, shouldn't it be Bryan Adams? not Ryan Adams?

Nope. Ryan Adams is one of them new modern singer songwriter types, as opposed to Bryan Adams, who is a very, very old school singer songwriter types.

English has many exceptions, but the grammatical rules are quite simple. German has probably as many exceptions, but the grammar is a nightmare. For example, they might say:
"Just remember that the prince someone who you want to witharoundscrew not is."
