It's my impression that AI isn't a topic daily on every one's mind and so I am wondering
1) If that's because a) Almost everyone subconsciously feels threatened by it and therefore avoids discussion and participation, or b) I'm wrong and it's everywhere
2) Where I can go to participate; that some AI programs act so genuinely human that contests are staged in which the participant communicating by keyboard has to judge whether he's chatting with a human or an AI program. Specifically I find the prospect fascinating and would like a link to such a program

Fal thank you most kindly, I've saved the link in my Faves. Vastly amusing, what great fun. Having a chat with Oliver, he advised, "a pantheist is a form of drudgery. I suppose that makes sense."
When I advised him I was a child, he replied, "You are too old for me."
Speaking of intelligence, something Bill Gates' minions have been sorely denied, when I placed that link he set it at the bottom of the Faves list, as his algorithm correctly requires, but I would like it to be at the top. The usual way this is done, apparently, is to drag the link to the new position in which you desire it to find it
However, the way Bill has set it up, its climb is very slow; so if for instance you should have 450 entries in this list, dragging your most Fave from the bottom to the top would take 32 hours with your finger holding the mouse key depressed the whole time
So I highlighted the entry, noting that Bill had provided a "Cut" function. Great, I mused, I will cut it out then paste it it the top. Returning there, however, I noted that Bill had provided no "Paste"
So I guess I'll leave it at the bottom
God bless Bill Gates

>leave it at bottom
or..
a) if you have that many favorites, you could should organize them into folders; then you could create one called favorite favorites and move your favorite favorite to the top of that.
b) Customize the Links Toolbar (see the tutorial link, at the bottom) to put favorite favorites on your Toolbar [better]
c) download/install the Firefox browser* (takes less than five(5) minutes), which unlike IE, has cut/paste for Bookmarks [best]
*edit: during the download process, you are asked if you want to import your IE favorites. answer in the affirmative unless you want to start over creating bookmarks. Download Firefox
