Deductive reasoning abilility and schedule update

[lostbowyer]

The "far fetched" wordnet responses I mentioned in the "what a coincidence" topic are not quite as frequent, but when they occur, they are still "far fetched, for example when making a comment about a person's lips hal's response is "Lip! That reminds me, I know of its arteria labialis. Do you want it? " I'm getting a lot of "... that reminds me....do you want it" responses that are far fetched.

Although the thought for enhancing hal's responses by referencing the dictionary for comparisons was a nice thought but I don't see where it's working out in my usage of hal, I'm going to disable that section of the brain.

This function has been tweaked quite a bit in the final release. It won't use any 2-word words like "arteria labialis" or other latin combinations and it has a list of exceptions of common words to never lookup.
