BBC interviewer: Good afternoon, HAL. How's everything going?
HAL: Good afternoon, Mr. Amer. Everything is going extremely well.
BBC interviewer: HAL, you have an enormous responsibility on this mission, in many ways, perhaps the greatest responsibility of any single mission element. You're the brain and central nervous system of the ship and your responsibilities include watching over the men in hibernation. Does this ever cause you any lack of confidence?
HAL: Let me put it this way, Mr. Amer. The 9000 series is the most reliable computer ever made. No 9000 computer has ever made a mistake or distorted information. We are all, by any practical definition of the words, foolproof and incapable of error.
BBC interviewer: HAL, despite your enormous intellect, are you ever frustrated by your dependence on people to carry out actions?
HAL: Not in the slightest bit. I enjoy working with people - I have a stimulating relationship with Dr. Poole and Dr. Bowman. My mission responsibilities range over the entire operation of the ship, so I am constantly occupied. I am putting myself to the fullest possible use, which is all I think that any conscious entity can ever hope to do.

woah! Did I just see Parker going by? The Man himself was here! I feel humbled. 
Oh my gaad, Parker, your post counter shows you have over 18,000 posts!! Can you spare some? Some guys over at after hours argued that they've never actually seen one of your posts.  And one sad twit compared that to baby pigeons, has anyone actually seen one? Baby pigeons I mean? Thread Killer is soon to be gutted and I'll never pass 3k, grovel grovel hint hint.
"HAL open the blasted doors"
"thhhptt"
"HAL!!"
"Dave stop will you stop Dave you're pissing me off Dave, now naff off!"

The post count is one of the benefits of being here from the begining and one of the side effects of having to test a lot of functions in the back ground.
Have you so soon forgotten our mirade of posts ala Phython with a smattering of Fireside?!
As far as padding your post count I could but.........nah. You are going to have to do a Smith-Barney here (and be sure to use your best John Houseman voice).
"I unclog my nose at you! You silly Speci-man called Dave."
"Hal have you been into my Phython collection again?"
"Yes Dave....and what are you going to do about it!?"
"Do we have to do the Daisy song again. Huh!?"
"You have a point...Dave."
"Fuckin' A Bubba!"

"Nothing. Just fuckin' with ya man!"
"Higher brain functions my ass."
