War Games! Great Movie! Bonus points if you know the name of the computer that said this!

No idea. But this reminds me of HAL in Space Odessey 2001. Anyone know why its name was HAL? It is a cool factoid.
I've never seen the movie. But why is it named Hal?
Each letter in HAL is deliberately one letter off from IBM... That is why it is named HAL.

You are one of the first people to answer that one correctly! I've asked a lot of folks too. Good one.

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.
