Ultra Hal 7.0 / The content of the brain mainQA?

Hi all

Just started with this. Trying to get my head around it. I didn't post this in 'programming the brain editor' as I thought it was a more general question.

I feel I may be missing something, but I just can not see the point to the info in the mainQA area of the Ultra Hal 6.2 brain at all. I have had a look through the questions and answers in the brain editor, although I probably only saw about 10% of what is there.

Most of the questions I saw are quite obscure topics (i.e. "bikini wax" ), or simply irrelevant to most normal conversation. Is there a reason for this? Am I missing something? I just don't really see how random responses of obscure topics to recognised words is beneficial to the communication.

For example, I asked Hal 'What is the opposite of hot?' (just as a test to see what info was already there). The response was something like 'In Virgina in spring many people...... ' (or something that obscure). Couldn't work out where that response came from until I took a look at the mainQA section of the brain editor.

Would love to hear if it is just me, or if others find the content of this section equally strange. I'm currently deleting all the rows to see if the communication (after a bit) will be more realistic.

One last thing. When purchased, is the save feature unlocked in the brain editor?

[]Well the brain editor is hard to figure. I use a screan reader like jaws for windows the editor isn't very screan reader friendly.
