Sociologists! No more fretting about essay deadlines - technology has the answer. (Hat tip to Harry at Chase Me Ladies, I'm In the Cavalry. I seem to remember seeing a similar - if slightly cruder and more nonsensical - text generator somewhere; that one relied on absorbing Markov chains indexing blocks of text, this is a bit more cunningly recursive, incorporating a rules for dealing with grammar. Details at The Dada Engine. If I can find the Markov generator I'll stick a link to it somewhere.)
