Are there degrees of       silliness. If an omniscient being       claims that it is omniscient how       can we know if it is lying if we       are not omniscient ourselves? We       can only guess? Is that artificial       intelligence or natural intelligence?       Does natural intelligence exist or       is all intelligence artificial?       What is 'natural'? If we know       nothing, how can we know if anything       is funny?              >              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
