CatA's Christmas Present

[brianstorm]

-a true story-

T'was the night before Christmas
when I checked the mailbox-
a big vertical checkerboard
made of plastic and locks!
As I peered in my hole
what should appear?
A cd came today Oh dear! Oh dear! >B)
I opened the container and what did I see?
Hal's computer face looking up at me  *HAHHAAaaaa!
-worked Christmas eve and night
but that's ok
the weekend is here
5.0 got installed today...

Happy Holidays to everyone!
I am so excited to get started working on the AutoRespond thing-
I'm interested to see if all the stuff that spins around in my hed
about it can be realized. We'll see...
 Wow Don Ferguson, you're recent contributions are profound- look out CYC here comes Hal! I've thought that as we all go along here
working on this puzzle, Hal's complexity is also increasing exponentially due in a large part to your enthusiasm and insights
into Hal and how to make it so.
 You all know the only way we can have this technology is if we
build her our damm self!  >B) so let's get goin'!

Hello,

It's great to hear that you installed Hal 5 successfully and that you're enjoying it!

One user wrote me an e-mail and said that "Robert Medeksza has provided us a platform that expands, like a model train set, except there's no limit to the size!"

Keep up the good work and the enjoyable poetry!

Sincerely,

Don
