@Reg reminds me of a bloke I had lunch with, who claimed he could tell me the exact time any place anywhere, so I asked him what time it was on the moon.  It seemed to perturb him.

Hahaha Reg brilliant memories

@Reg.  Stunning.

Jake maybe it’s not conveying the movement of passion, choosing words that lead to a steady unemotional blank landscape. We like our ups and downs 🙂

Funny thing though, Reg. Your first post was really readable, pulling the reader into your perspective and quite compelling.

The AI post was boring and skimmable without engaging the reader at all. I’ve rarely seen such a clear example of the gap between human and non human communication.

Thanks, Reg!!

Yikes, here I am, late to the party!

Thanks, Reg!!

@Jake  I can’t disagree with any of your comment regarding intelligence, and I particularly like the capitalised Actual Intelligence. Really good food for thought.

Thanks Reg!

Thanks, Reg 🙂

Thanks Reg!!

Thanks, Reg!!

Thanks, Reg!  Happy New Year to you and  I hope all your Machiavellian plans for 2026 achieve outstanding success!

Thank you Reg. I’m really touched. Your poem is amazing and I’m honoured by the dedication.

(And thanks for Sunday School!)

@simon it’s not just people dying, like snuffing out a candle. It’s about leprosy, polio, and a million savage unrepairable wounds. It’s about the misery of pain, and the proximity to animal violence that pervaded in your ‘sounds great’ description.

Thanks Reg!

Thanks, Reg!!

Thanks Reg!!
