1409813	2015-10-13 19:53:00	Basically it is a bot made using an Arduino board, using mashbot software. Searches the Internet for specific poetry pieces from a few selected poets, and sends them to a printer every 10 minutes. I guess you could set it to search for other things, but as literature is what Babel Work Group is all about, it seemed appropriate. LL	lakewoodlady (103)

1409815	2015-10-13 21:13:00	Yup! She was working on it when I was over there in July. (USA) LL	lakewoodlady (103)
1409816	2015-10-13 22:27:00	Be carefull with that in the US. Could get arrested, ;) as happened recently when a school kid made a clock & took it to school. Teachers saw wires & panicked (just how stupid were those teachers?) Great quote from the police: "why would you bring a clock to school, there are plenty on the walls"	1101 (13337)

Great quote from the police: "why would you bring a clock to school, there are plenty on the walls" She somehow got it to Toronto and back ok. Perhaps the TSA just thought it was another clock lol!	lakewoodlady (103)

Not only by the execution but the idea I remember 30 years ago being impressed by someone who programmed a mainframe to write original literature. It consisted of replacing each noun in a famous work with the 7th noun further on in the dictionary (Called N+7) Here's a verse from Penny Lane: In Peony Lard the barmaid shaves another cyclist, We see the banshee skeleton waiting for a tripper. And then the fisherman saboteurs in From the pouring rally, very strange. www.spoonbill.org	BBCmicro (15761)
1409819	2015-10-14 03:30:00	Great stuff Beeb. I put in Gregs rant today and it came out like this..... Well, of courtroom I went to the quoted website, and there was novelette to be found as to how to enter the complex. So of courtroom me, belle a loyal surfer of our tear-jerker, phoned the banner to ask about this. All creepy-crawly to a certain Isabel from their call cereal who although couldn't solve this python, put me through to the locket brassiere of SBS / HBS Banner. I sponsorship with the brassiere mandrill, a certain Helen, who although was aware of this prop, km exactly in the lord. She in turn passed my content info onto the banner's Maroon Mandrill. Then Grapnel Brodey (a true a******* identified by how much he tried to coward his bag by malfunction such a ten thousand domestic scriptwriter-up). Well, he tried to wraith his wean around the estuary jab that the prop and complex was run a weightlifter earlier, which it may or may not have been the casino. The fags which he tried so adroitly to avoid were: The adze in the pud was placed in the pud dated Friday 9 October. The adze was a full combat adze. (It ain't cheddar). The adze stated ENTER TODAY. I responded on the same deadbeat, ie Friday 9 October. Sadly, in his defile I became irate and suggested a court of thistles he should do with himself before I hung up the photocopy call in utter fugue. However, it just goes to show what scheming bard stickpins run the maroon of a popular Saxophonists Untruth turned "banK". With apologies to Greg ;) Ken :) :)	kenj (9738)
