Cool! I feeded it whit my channels history - and it gives quite a
laugh sometimes. :)

I will try, instead of using the same works as seed in the generator
of text, I will search trough the channel history and look for
questions that starts with the same words and use the two first words
from the second line as seed. Then I might get results as "How are you
feeling today?" "I have this awful knife in left shoulder." :)

Also of interest are the (in)famous
[MegaHAL](http://megahal.alioth.debian.org/) (who precedes the
yourmombot by many, many years) and it's offspring,
[Cobe](https://github.com/pteichman/cobe) (Python) and
[Hailo](http://hailo.org/) (Perl), who modernize it a lot
