MegaHello!

[hummingwolf]

Whenever MegaHAL has the chance (that is, when he happens to have the appropriate words in his data set), he likes to use an appropriate greeting when you begin the program. Here is how he greeted me earlier today:

Hello!
hello!
are you being played by hundreds? Or by one?
do in all great cities men exist
just seconds or light-years away, and i won't let you stomp and sing
beneath my glass skin
that brain waves are located near coastlines,
hence the greatest eloquence.

Those last two lines have a certain appeal, though what they mean isn't all that clear.

I meant to do MegaPoMo posting earlier in the day, but I got distracted by stuff in the offlie world. On the plus side, I walked a respectable distance (probably four & a half miles or so), took a break to listen to good music (Nik Kershaw's 15 Minutes CD), didn't get smothered under paperwork (because I avoided it for the day), and wasn't suffocated by noxious organic fumes (don't ask). Here's hoping I can do worthwhile things online earlier tomorrow. Have a good night (or day), everyone!

Thanks, Bear! Have a happy weekend yourself!

That is pretty cool verse right there. The computer might not get anything out of it, but I can, sorta!

Hal does come up with some food for thought sometimes.
