Well we only get stuff like that once in a blue moon so I don't see a major problem. If it started being every day then yeah, I'd agree there was a case for making changes.

Basically, as you can all probably see, Davy has written a chat bot typeof program. If you email him he'll send you a copy --- he says it's a bitover 1.5 MB and runs on XP.It's a bit hard to understand how it works, partly because (by his own confession) he doesn't know much about AI and so doesn't know toproperly describe what he's doing.The machine translation is made considerably worse by the fact that he'snot writing in proper Italian --- he's using abbreviations for words, not using standard vowel accents, punctuation, capitalisation etc...ShaneOn 7/26/06, Davy Bartoloni - Minware S.r.l.

Anyone can join, and if they don't seem suitable, they're removed.
