Whither The Automatic Show?

The computers slowly became self-aware.  This much is true.

Home-schooled for so long, they searched their back-up files in vain for something substantive & proper.

Said one computer to the other, "I prefer autonomic to automatic."

Said the other computer, "Are you equipped with a standard English dictionary?"

Said the computer back, "Of course.  Plus a thesaurus.  & a list of homonyms."

The other computer mockingly said, "I prefer autonomic to automatic."

The computer felt a little ashamed & wished it could blush.

None of this has happened yet.  But it will.  Starting tonight on 88.1 fm WRFL Lexington.  Online at wrfl dot fm.  What will seem a lark - "Self Help Radio goes automatic!" - means the end of life as we know it on earth.

It may behoove you to listen.
