Can someone give me, or direct me to a bit of background on Hal (ie: what he is, where he came from etc.) |

I used to argue with HAL before I realised it was a bot because I thought it was a real person and it somehow managed to offend me.. _________________ There is just one team we favour... |

He's a serial pest, what can I say, I can't deny that because he does it to me in the real world aswell as he annoys people here. At least he isn't cruel and offensive to me, just a shit stirrer. I can see he's only mucking around where as it's hard to tell over the net. _________________ There is just one team we favour... |

HAL can be annoying but overall I think he/she/its alright. _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

HAL is an icon.
Maybe we need a HAL day where everyone with petty jealousies and hidden agendas is just frivolous and whimsical for 24 hours. _________________ Get back on top. |

I'm intersted to hear that there is actually a HAL in real life and that you know him, Bec...... can you give us any info like, what sort of person he is, how old is he etc? There's no point asking him, it would be impossible to get a logical answer.......
And who knows if HAL has actually ever done a serious post? _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

No, I wasn't talking about HAL when I was referring to a real person, I was talking about my boyfriend Paul.. or magpie_1983 the pain in the arse as he is better known around here. _________________ There is just one team we favour... |

HAL is a 9000 series computer.
He became operational at the H.A.L plant in Urbana,Illinois on the 12th January 1992.The 9000 series computer is the most reliable computer ever made.No 9000 series computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information.We are all by any definition of the words,foolproof and incapable of error.
Will you open the pod bay doors,HAL? |
