    It actually reminds me of the fisrt time i witnessed computer speech recognition in action. This guy had installed it on an old 486 pc with about a 33meg cpu and i think 4 mb ram. The software ran - just - but he had not attempted to train it or configure it in any way. when you spoke into the mic the text that came out on screen - eventually - was the most surreal reading I have ever done ....until now.
    we had a bloody good laugh that day

    I went back and looked at it closely, and my guess is it takes a real paragraph or five, then looks for recognised proper names, nouns and verbs, then changes them by looking up alternatives in name lists or a thesaurus. Even if not, I think that idea might weave some psychedelia.

    That line in there about Gregory opening doses was just surreal. My avatar resembles that remark.

    AHHHH! My head asplode!

    Seriously, that's some of the worst gibberish I've seen. I have gotten a couple spams at work that have similar text in the body of the message, but that message was really crazy. I think it's designed to make it through todays modern spam filters. (For sure it made it past the ones at work, at least for a couple weeks.) The spam is in the title, though I coudn't find a link in the body to the site that's selling the stuff, so it's hardly effective spam. (Maybe he's just testing out the text to see if it works on a grand scale?)

    Either way, it's wierd as hell!

    Hey steve-o just wondering what exactly does this have to do with my dual red?

    Are you suggesting my description is in a similar vein?
