Prove you’re not a machine

Listening to:

Mozart, serenade in D, K185/167a.

Some links:

  • An article from Wired of October 2001 about The Lord of the Rings, and the interaction between the film-makers and the fans.
  • Want to prove you’re a human (and not a computer)? Try some of the tests at www.captcha.net. They’re like very specialised Turing Tests, and one of them is apparently used by Yahoo to stop computer programs from registering with it for free e-mail addresses.
  • Finally, an engaging article on which fish species are reasonable to eat. (For example, Atlantic cod is right out.) Also, the Marine Conservation Society’s page with the details (the link from the Guardian article is wrong).
