Dar stward,
You have posted this entry several times beforehand, even though the order of the words has changed. It has been met with essentially the same kind of response, telling you that it (a) unsuitable for PR and (b) the sort of thing that someone very deranged might write.
Now, I don't know how to state my feelings about this politely, because others have tried to do this beforehand and had little effect. This is a load of delusional garbage. I never thought that the words 'To be continued...' could fill me with such dread.

Stward's back - fantastic.
Peer Review is not the place for his efforts though, tis true. Could we not arrange something whereby he could post his work directly to the bus shelter?

This makes too much sense to have been written by a machine, and not enough to have been written by a human. Does anyone know what language it is in?

Just for fun...and a laugh, I did a web search on the first paragraph of this piece, to see if it IS an original work . My number one hit was a site called NARIA - Artificial Intelligence: Recurrent Asymmetric Networks. !!

A friend of mine used to work in a bank. Every now and then, a certain old gentleman would turn up, who in fact was worth quite a bit. He would take out of his briefcase an envelope with Monopoly money in it, and ask for it to be paid into his account. My friend, or whoever was serving him, would dutifully count out all the money, and write him a receipt. He went away happy, and nobody's feelings were hurt.
I'm sort of thinking that perhaps we should regard this entry as the hootoo equivalent of an envelope full of Monopoly money. That we should set up a fake process where we peer-review it, say 'this is wonderful stuff', and pretend to pick it for the EG. Perhaps we can even set up a server process that detects the word 'Adventor' and then creates a whole load of fake PR postings.
Key: Complain about this post
