You would mention hal wouldn't you? :-@ :-@
I have the flu, nasty one at that, and I really don't need to add hal to
my list right now. That said, the Doctor called and the blood tests
said I was healthy as a horse, other than being sick as a dog. :/
Sort of like software, supposed to work great out of the box but usually
doesn't. Imagine me on windoze. O_O

P. S. I'm not sure about the living part yet. It's a theory that is
yet to be proven.
