I quote myself: "I do love AI. Can the human race really be under threat from a mechanical life form which writes "Sir Thomas Dagworth lived from 1276 to July 1450 (or 1352 depending on historical records)"? There is still some way to go." And that's material that IS online!

“I have sent you parti-coloured cups that change colour, presented to me by the priest of a temple . I would like you to use them at banquets on feast days.”

In support of @duxfordchurches John Vigar is giving his talk on Murder, Sex & Mayhem in English Parish Churches this Friday. Do come if you can. It's one of the last chances to hear John before he retires next year and we're lucky to have him speak.
