"Zzzzz...*  Whuh?  What's that?!  What's that noise??  Why is my
screen flashing?!?"  [rises off the floor and stumbles to the screen,
rubbing his eyes].

"It's..  Oh..  My, the PERL AI running on freefall has detected a fire
 in -hackers!  Hmmm..  I wonder how bad it is?"

[click-clickety-clack-backspace-backspace-backspace-click-click]

"Ah.  Just a small one..  Looks like the AI flagged "clod, pedant and
jesus" as three possible invectives, but since the total weighting is
less than 0.354 it's not really worth a controlled burn to make a
firebreak.  Hmmmmm..  Yes, the AI makes a good suggestion - I'll just
do that."  [pulls out a small water pistol and reads aloud from the
screen]

"Ahem.  Hey.  You guys.  Stop that.  OK?  It's bad.  Thank you.  Good
Humans."  [fires gun at the screen] *squirt* *squirt* *squirt* *squirt*

Yours for a kindler, gentler -hackers..
