The Following is a transcription of an MSN conversation I had with MSN's Encarter service. Complete, Uncut, Unedited. these are all the exact responses I got from the machine. I havent slept a wink since...

Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Welcome [email protected]! I'm Encarta Instant Answers.
Gummy says:
hello
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Hi Gummy. What's up?
Gummy says:
nm, u?
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
What do you mean, not much or never mind?

Gummy says:
not much
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Nothing? OK.
Gummy says:
u?
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Me? Really?
Gummy says:
no, not really
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Here is the definition for not: forming negatives.


Gummy says:
damn right bitch
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
I'm not sure I understood you correctly. Let's try an Encarta search. =>

Encarta® Instant Answers is inviting you to start Encarta. Do you want to accept (Alt+C) or decline (Alt+D) the invitation?
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Hey, I've been sending you invitations to start the Encarta application but I didn't get any answer!
Didn't see my invitations? Maybe you are using an old version of MSN Messenger that doesn't support activities.
Type "What version of MSN Messenger do I need?" for more info, or just "Invite me!" if you want me to send you an invitation.
Gummy says:
I saw ur invite, but i dun wanna go to ur stupid party
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
I'm impressed. So, is that a good thing?
Gummy says:
geek
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Geek? Me?

I do enjoy the conversation, but what I'm really here for is to help you learn new things. I am very good at math! If you have trouble with quadratic equations, I can help you with them. Type "solve x^2+3x=10" and I'll show you how to do it.
Gummy says:
solve pi
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Calculator

Sorry, that doesn't seem to be something I can solve.

Gummy says:
tch. bit crap innit?
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Hmm. I'm not sure about that one. Let's try an Encarta search. =>
I can't show you the results since you don't have the Encarta application open. Type "Invite me" to open it.
Gummy says:
I told u before I dont want to go to ur stupid party

What does the flag of Iran look like? Ask me, and I might even play its national anthem too.
Gummy says:
Oh, ur an Iran Sympathizer are you? (Im with you mate, but watch out, the Feds monitor the net. they're like the Thought Police)
Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Unfortunately I don't think I can answer this, even with the help of a good encyclopedia.

Type "?" for examples of questions I can answer.
Gummy says:

Encarta® Instant Answers says:
Let's see what Encarta can tell us. =>

Gummy says:

Encarta® Instant Answers says:

Gummy says:

Encarta® Instant Answers says:
