I zipped through that long article, and will return at my convenience (wherever my convenience is installed with good plumbing at the time). What I found interesting in the Emerson selection in my first post was its anti-Turing feel: that it reminded me of some real screen language interactions between real people here, not the other way around. That is, some posts have read like they were composed by a glib software routine. I won't name names of course.
