Found 6/12 per email from Peter Fishwycke whom Dale was working on the HIP program for.

Quote:
The Answer Project is the brainchild of Dr. Peter Fishwycke....

During his years at college, Peter developed what he calls "The Theory of Absolute Reality." His theory states that every question has a definite, absolute answer. Even though we as human beings do not always know the answer, it does exist.

With that idea firmly in mind, Peter hypothesized that if enough computers were to work together in tandem, the answer to every question could be determined. .....

Dr. Fishwycke has developed a web-based question submission system which he has named CAROL (Computerized Answer Retreival OnLine), in memory of his mother. Using the CAROL form, a user can submit a question to our system. If an answer to the question is found, CAROL displays the answer on the page. Due to this project still being in its early stages, there may be times when you get what appears to be a nonsense response.

CAROL seems to be key word based.
So far... valid words/phrases:

    the wish
    dale sprague (but not just dale)
    wes keeler
    aglaura
    diana (or diana sprague)


Other (invalid) phrases seem to cycle through a list of random quotes.

The responses to the valid words and the attempted invalid words (and responses) are all in the attached txt document.

We're compiling responses there.

Quick Reference sections are for quick reference, other info should be posted in general or puzzle sections.
