Are you sure it was computer generated? Didn't look as if it all was to
me. Granted parts of it clearly were, but it also appeared to have some
human generated bits as well.

What about the Galaxy game results that seem to appear quite frequently,
aren't they a problem to you? It's not that important, I'm just curious
as to why this particular posting triggered your exasperation when
previous game specific posts computer generated postings haven't?
