>>>>>[ It just might work ramierez! A copy of RUFUS. Hmmm, that would be
like creating a clone of RUFUS and the throwing it to it's doom. I'm not to
familiar with AI design, but the basic theory is that the code, once running
alters itself continuously. If you copied the code that is running, it would
probably be one state of the Intelligence rather than the whole working thing.
To get a fully functional one, you'd need some sort of system startup. So,
a copy of RUFUS's running code might appear to be RUFUS, but not actually have
"life". It may be enough to trick MONICA, but now that she has control, she's
probably intelligent enough not to give up control of the net! ]<<<<<
