and a rough transliteration from the moderator (please let me know if  
I have misunderstood)

"I don't understand theory...but I've looked at Christophe's online  
work and have tried one of his work, 'The Generator of Epipany",
which seemed to me to be quite amusing, especially considering when  
Christophe built it... I found it when reading the summary of
'Human Browser' (and I also viewed several videos also inside there, in

I noticed a major technological bond between 'Human Browser" and the  
generator of epiphany, but it seems to me all the same that it is  
almost the same idea except only with the IO method (how do you say  
this in French?  the last time that I programmed in France was in  
1993 and I spent several days with my old friend at INSA in Rennes,  
trying to make a program for simplifying algebraic expressions in  
Scheme, which shows how things are changed...)
