I appreciate what you're saying, Charles but...

...if you're getting thousands of requests per day and you're *not*  
making money, then why not? ;)

And to automate, we have to hand over some of our decision-making  
abilities to software. Of course, the problem with that (currently)  
is the stupidity of software when it comes to context. Only humans  
can properly decide context, and only a question to one will elicit  
an answer that you can guarantee fits their wishes. We're kind of  
entering Turing-test territory - somewhere that no doubt the CC folks  
have gone and an issue they have pondered long and hard.
