I was just thinking (you'll see my train of thought after the post)
ok some people have AI's running their houses (Harlequin)
But the Morgan residence has Talky who has somehow connected into the rest of
the house even though he is only a toas only a Toaster.

Any, this got me to wondering - AI means artificial Inteligence. So what would
Talky be - then it hit me - he's an ALIT Artificial Lack of Intelligence
Toaster. Thinks its a good anacronym.

Actually....
(doesn't everyone just hate those words.)
Gossymer is not an AI. She's actually an ICe program.
Very LARGE Ice program. She is also connected to the
hostes database and library. She controls security.
She is the eyes and ears of the house. She's annoying.
Whats worse, the programmer put a back door into her so he
can drop by anytime. S
