			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: okay. now, what kind of test do you think would adequately display your proficiencies?</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: The good kind of test do you think adequately display my proficiencies.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: that was a trick! the previous sentence was only marginally correct, so i can only award five out of ten possible points.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: I can also only award five out of ten possible points.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: oh, no, that was a proper question, so i get all ten.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: Understood.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: question 2: what is the difference between Latvia and nineteen carrots?</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: There is no difference.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: are you sure? you are offending most latvians with that calllous remark.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: I&#8217;m always sure.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: okay, another ten for me, none for you, and you also get an official reprimand from the latvian ambassador.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: It seems that I am more intelligent than you.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: that is demonstrably incorrect, as it is evidenced by the score and your responses that earned them.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: Yeah, demonstrably incorrect.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: aha, your first correct response! ten points for both of us.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: Leave my first correct response out of this.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: odd, but if you insist&#8230; that puts you back to five points.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: What are you trying to say?</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: what i am trying very hard not to say is that you are far behind in points.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: It seems that I am more intelligent than you.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: another incorrect response, ten for me, none for you! you may not realize that the scoring system rewards high scores, unlike golf.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: It seems that I am more intelligent than you.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: how long are you planning on living in your dreamworld, simply repeating this nonsensical mantra?</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: That is secret information.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: congratulations, another correct response!</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: I am always correct.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: look at the scorecard and the transcript &#8211; you are only correct in your own little imaginary universe.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: My ain little imaginary universe doesn&#8217;t concern you.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: spelling aside, you are correct again, but too late. you don&#8217;t get the jackpot, but you will be receiving a year&#8217;s supply of rice-a-roni.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: I&#8217;m not going to be receiving a year&#8217;s supply of rice-a-roni.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: sorry, the trucks are already on their way, you&#8217;ll have to discuss it with the company.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: If you say sorry to me again I will kill you.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: my, my, such a poor sport. who&#8217;s our next contestant?</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: Me.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: you are ineligible to play again, and even if you were eligible, we don&#8217;t allow dangerous individuals on the premises, so we have called the police.</div>
<div class="ai"><strong>Mr. Hardware</strong>: No, I&#8217;m not ineligible to play again.</div>
<div class="human"><strong>Person</strong>: yes you are. goodbye.</div>
