</div>Somewhat taken aback there!<br>
<br>
I am published but nothing most people would want to read unless<br>
you're into instrumentation for scanning probe microscopy and<br>
sub-nanometre scale force-distance spectroscopy...<br>
<br>
<br>
Which still leaves the possibility of an elaborate Eliza having<br>
ingested all my writings to then bolt appropriate phrases together...<br>
How would anyone know other than by relying on the Turing test or a<br>
Blade Runner style void-com(sp?) test?<br>
<br>
Anyone game for explaining online identity? (Ideal lead-in to GPG ;-) )<br>
<br>
Things must have happened since our last talk on the subject years ago.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
