I honestly think that when technology allows us to search all the information in the world, to hold a more than thousand movies on a single hard disk, to create computer-animated movies, and to translate documents from Chinese to Spanish (I just did this yesterday... Don't ask...) this sort of instrument simulation is NOT beyond our grasp. I don't think it's trivial - or even easy. But I wish someone did it - as free software of course... computer-generated movies are still not 100% realistic looking - but are already good enough that people pay to watch. In some cases they are even more realistic than the real thing (e.g., for special effects). > And on another note (pun intended): do you really get these > random signatures at random? Usually, yes. In some rare cases (like the message you refer to) I choose a specific one which I think is relevant :-) -- Nadav Har'El | Wednesday, Apr 18 2012, n...@math.technion.ac.il |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |He who dies with the most toys is still http://nadav.harel.org.il |dead -- Citibank billboard, Manhattan 2001 _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
