Perhaps a simple request...
 
I'd like to get a hold of some information on, and hopefully some actual
text by, pseudo-creative writing programs/computers, interactive/ai 
conversation prog/comps, and any combination of both.  
 
Does anyone have any text files they could send containing artificially
generated fiction?  I seem to remember a book that a computer wrote 
several years back entitled "The Policeman's Beard Is Half Constructed".
I read about it, oddly enough, in Omni magazine.  Also...does anyone 
have any pregenerated articles dealing with the actual structures on
which these types of programs are built?
