| Tantalus (OP) User ID: 967932 United States02/10/2011 02:18 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are things about the way the game Jeopardy works, in the way it presents its questions. In many cases, they are cryptic, and obscure, and require human style logic to even get what the refrences being made, are. That is why I ask, do you understand the implications of a computer that can understand human logic, as opposed to mathmatic logic?
