I don't know about no Roosevelt quotes, knowing the dead presidents of my country is hard enough. I don't think I know too many quotes from them either. 62.106.49.24 (talk) 19:21, 16 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Tragic examples

"To be or not to be, that is _____."
"I came, I saw, _____."

Unfortunately, any competent computer scientist will quickly identify these examples as isomorphic to simple index lookup over a unique (or nearly unique) lexical prefix.

How about "you know, that actor with the weird delivery, who stared in a seventies' thriller opposite the actress who also did those irritating shampoo commercials". I have one friend who reliably fills in this kind of thing all the time (though this is a mock example). And then it turns out he wasn't the star (it was an ensemble cast), and it wasn't the 1970s (it was 1968), and it wasn't shampoo (it was a split-end repair product), and it wasn't technically a thriller (but a genre send-up, akin to a long-lost Scary Movie). Not only does my friend know all my movie references, but she has a pretty good model of my flailing memory, too.

There was a reason why Turing recruited crossword wizards: the decoded messages were usually a cryptic stew of formal German, creole German, German military slang, military abbreviations, and names and places in occupied territories, bizarrely rendered. — MaxEnt 19:36, 10 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
