Eliza

Christian Graus

I considered spending a day answering as many posts as I can in the manner of the old 'Eliza' program to see how long it took for people to cotton on that this is what I was trying to do, but I decided it would be annoying. But it seemed such a cool idea that I thought I'd settle for telling you all :-) Christian No offense, but I don't really want to encourage the creation of another VB developer. - Larry Antram 22 Oct 2002 C# will attract all comers, where VB is for IT Journalists and managers - Michael P Butler 05-12-2002 Again, you can screw up a C/C++ program just as easily as a VB program. OK, maybe not as easily, but it's certainly doable. - Jamie Nordmeyer - 15-Nov-2002

Why is it that you consider spending a day answering as many posts as I can in the manner of the old 'Eliza' program enjoyable? ;) Regards Barry

You are the intrepid one, always willing to leap into the fray! A serious character flaw, I might add, but entertaining. Said by Roger Wright about me.

Why do you find cotton annoying?

Technically speaking the dictionary would define Visual Basic users as programmers.
But here again, a very generalized, liberal definition is being employed and it's wrong

This has my vote of being the most typical Eliza like response to my post.

That's interesting. Why would you think I would say that?
