Your suggestion is HELP I CAN"T GET ANYON absurd - the very notion that computers are powerful contradicts PLEASE COME TO MY HOU everything we know about the limits of machine intelligence.

Glad the world has such guardians to keep people in their place.

Well,...

I got Doctors telling me I got maybe two years left.. and this Cat says I'm bordering on Insanity..LOL...   That's hilarious...Man I ain't that far gone yet...

they said I had 6 months left at best Jack. Still here afta almost 4 years. They dont really know, it's all half educated guesswork.

Get on something and stay so busy and interested on it you dont have time to think about anything else, something that engages your mind into the future time to come so strongly you dont really think about yer health issues.

It works.

[KB3RRX]

Never trust doctors it's all guesswork in a white coat.
And to prove my point that they know not what they are doing
Why do you think they call it a practice

Worlds best health care plan.... Avoid the doctors.

As I heard it before, there's a reason for saying that they are practicing medicine.

I thought it was humorous. And there is truth to it, so the humor was well taken.

The time will come when the computer can reasonably pass a turing test. But it will still do as told. It'll be the faceless men behind it that will pull the strings of it's mind. There is where the doom is.

It will/is/ all happen so slowly no one will notice it. Look how computers are used to oppress people and reduce them to tools and objects every day. credit reports, public data, sharing of private data.

What did they call this other abomination?? Oh, ZLE - "zero latency enterprise" - something DEC was pushing with the Alpha - well it is here, now. On other platforms, whatever - Rows of racks of compters in corporate datacenters all interconnected all collecting data on where you shop and what you buy, in person and online, so that the appropriate things could be offered to you, quickly and on the spot! The concept used to scare the crud out of some of the people that were working to implement it at the time.

A "wrong thing" is also that people who don't care about me, and don't want to know me perhaps even despising me and everyone else, except as a data object in a file, are making decisions about me. Decisions that suddenly become "facts" because a computer wrote it to a file.

Gee whiz I tried to order a 18th century reproduction of a book of cat stories from "victoria trading co." for my mother's birthday and they were out of stock. But now they send me frilly catalogs of womanly things in my mailbox! ZLE Baby! They won't stop. Another entity send the catlogs for them. What can the postman think?? Geez guess I better counter that with some inquiries to Northern Hydraulics and a subscription to Military Vehicles magazine!

AARGH! I NEED HUMOR! The computer in my office "helps" me to do 10 times the work I should be able to do. Part II of that story is that the company expects 12 times as much work from me.

So the humor was appreciated in any case. So make me laugh. Make me laugh riotously till it hurts.
