Actually, this time I cheated. I manually picked that line for this particular post. ;-) Though I have to say, there were times in the past when the Perl script picked a quote that is eeriely relevant to the discussion at hand. The thought *did* cross my mind that it's starting to exhibit sentience. :-P On the other hand, I used to know someone whose signature script actually scanned the message body for keywords, and used some kind of Markov chain algo or some-such to pick the most appropriate quote for the occasion given those keywords. Alas, my understanding of Markov chains (or whatever it is they used) is practically nil, so I wouldn't know how to implement such a thing.
