Okay sorry. I'm a little touchy at having lots of people tell me I'm not
bright enough to do stuff that I did while still in highschool and
offering no real evidense while I have to keep going into more and more
detail all over a single one line statement that I didn't think he'd have
trouble parsing English for use with an IRC bot. People want me to stop
posting so much.. people think I'm some retard that just babbles all day
without any real knowledge. I can post code. Anyone who can't better not
tell me I'm full of shit. I've won awards and met lots of top experts in
the field. Just because I'm a weird half-crazed bum doesn't mean anything.

True-AI has been one of my goals for years and remains a project I expend
a lot of energy on but as nobody else has achieved anything more than I
have then my ways work just as well as anybody elses. I'm obsessed by AI
and the possibilities of using what we learn from it to help people with
brain defects and so forth. My sister is severly handicapped and I've had
major brain damage several times in my lifetime. Fixing such things is of
huge importance to me.

Okay I'll take my chill pill and down it with large amounts of liquor
now. As always thank you for shopping at K-Mart.
