Weizenbaum wrote Eliza (the original doctor) back in the 1960's as a parody of what can/cannot be accomplished by computers and AI. Eliza represents the genesis of chatterbots which offer natural and human-like interaction with a computer. To the OP: Wikipedia has a good write up on Eliza, Weizenbaum and his book http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ELIZA. All of them are recommended reading if you want to get deeper into NLP, AI, etc. - Raja _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
