Re: The POPE has died
The title of this thread is dated now
but it reminds me of when JP1 was elected pope, and died within a month, then JP2 was elected.
When JP1 died so quickly the wire services carried the news, that the pope of the world wide catholic church had died for the second time, how unsettling it was, and that the church had been shaken to its foundations (by losing two popes in such a short period)
MIT had an AI program at the time that scanned AP wire news storys, and condensed them down to one sentance. The program took in the AP wire story and output:
"The pope died twice today, causing a major earthquake!"
