:    Won't happen as long as the so-called randomness is as consistent
:    as PI's because in Shakespeare's writing _all_ necessary elements 
:    (letters, words, phrases, sentences) are statistically describable 
:    as not random.  No?

So, I get this image of an android lab where they just clone these things
by the billions, and occasionally one starts tying his shoes or his tie,
or walks in a straight line, or 'gets an idea'... for a few seconds.

Conversely, how long could a human put on a 'spastic android' act before
getting bored (and a crick in his neck) and relaxing back into human-ness?

There is a majorly funny joke lurking under the Internet like a bomb.
Can you feel it too?  Oops, I've been making sense for way too longjlsd k fena;


What does PI look like plotted as N-tuples (N-vectors)?
If you also sprayed out a picture of E, and then flicker
between them, maybe the character of each would stand
out in relative contrast?
PI's generating functions are so nice-looking, is there
not a way to "visualize" or "listen to" PI-NOISE and hear
some kind of structure in it?  Highly likely.

"CHINOISE PINOISE":
random-sounding music based on the PI-CHING, 
a stochastic record by John Change.
