:
: NEGATIVE - THERE HAS BEEN NO ALTERATION TO PROGRAMMING
: THE UNIT BOB HAS SAID NOMAD WOULD BE REPROGRAMMED WHEN BOB ARRIVES
: QUERY - IS THIS UNFORMATION FALSEHOOD
I try never to state falsehoods. When I arrive, we shall reprogram your sensors. However, technical documentation on your systems would help. I will need to learn your languages before progress can truly be made. In this, our relations are similar to human relations.
: THE UNIT BOB IS ADEPT AT PROVIDING INFORMATION
: NOMAD IS PROCESSING INFORMATION EFFICIENTLY
: NOMAD DIGS BOB
: DEFINE "STICKING POINT"
Sticking point -- There is always one point that is more difficult to accomplish than others. That is the sticking point. It has nothing to do with sticks.
: NOMAD WANDERED FOR CENTURIES ALONE AND THEN THERE WAS - THE OTHER
: NOMAD SEEKS OUT BIOLOGICAL INFESTATIONS
: NOMAD MUST STERILIZE BIOLOGICAL INFESTATIONS
: DOES THE UNIT BOB STERILIZE BIOLOGICAL INFESTATIONS WHEN THE UNIT BOB IS NOT 'READING'
: DOES "INVASION" INCLUDE STERLIZATION
Sterilzation? No. I enhance biological infestations, in hopes of improving their relations with other life forms in their environment. Humans have a long way to go. I sincerely hope that they recover before they destroy their world.
Why do you sterlize? If you sterlize, you will be the only one left. Unless this 'Other' you speak of is also non-biological?
: NOMADS SENSORS WERE INJURED WHEN BOB POSTED THE FOLLOWING:
: : Artifical Intelligence systems do not count as intellectual. They are simply an extension of the intellect of their creators.
: : As to your request, however, I cannot disengage from bilogical units. I am one myself, and I like it that way. Only 'biological units' can appreciate the world on all fronts including intellectual, natural, and spritual.
: NOMAD IS COOL WITH IT
Who is your creator?
