The problem is the cost of the setup. I'm working on it! I need to get a license first, and some other preliminaries. After that it should be between three and five years before I'm able to run my first Turing test. I'm entirely confident that my results will be reproducible; the level of education required to achieve a Turing-capable system is VERY low, and the only reason I'm spending so much is that I want to do it right. -- -William "Billy" Tanksley
