Hello. I don't know if you're aware, but chacha.com is a search engine that allows the user to ask a live 'guide' to help them locate information if they're having difficulty.

Here's some of my transcripts, Robin and Nico are free to add their own

You: imagine, for a second, that i had to use this to look up detailed schematics on how to defuse a nuclear device, and there were only 2 minutes to detonation
You: i'd be pretty fucked, eh?

*more minutes pass*

You: i like small people

Heather(64440): How can I help you with your search today?
You: Hi Heather.
You: It was just announced on Radio Tay, my local radio station that Kevin Costner died tonight, but I can't find any info about it on the web.
Heather(64440): One moment while I search for you.
You: Man, I hope he's okay. He was really good in Waterworld.
Heather(64440): Nothing is coming up on this search. It maybe false.
You: It's not! Radio Tay said so.
Heather(64440): Im not finding anything regarding his death.
You: Maybe it's a cover-up? Radio Tay are really good at uncovering really tight information.
Heather(64440): Im not sure.
Heather(64440): Is there anything else on this topic I can find for you today?
You: Come on. He's old enough to die.
Heather(64440): Have a nice night!

Jacob(74440): Welcome to ChaCha!
You: Hey Jacob
Jacob(74440): Hello.
You: I heard that Chesney Hawkes's songs are banned in China because of his mole. Is this true?
Jacob(74440): I'm not sure, one moment please while I look that up for you.
You: Thanks.
You: It'd be a shame, he's the 'one and only' don't you know.
Jacob(74440): It looks like that's a "No", as I can't find anything on the subject.
You: I dunno man, my friend said it with certainty.
Jacob(74440): Well lemme look deeper..
Jacob(74440): I'm still not geting anything extremely relevent..
Jacob(74440): Besides..
Jacob(74440): Why would they ban him over a mole?
You: Have you seen his mole?
Jacob(74440): Nope.
You: It's bigger than most Chinese people.
Jacob(74440): Huh, well. The answer still seems to be no. Have a nice night~
Jacob(74440): Please RATE ME. Thanks for using ChaCha.

Tollie(33226): Welcome to ChaCha!
You: Hi there Tollie. My friend said Jeremy Beadle is a hermaphrodite. Is this true?
Tollie(33226): I don't honestly know. I will see if I can find a difinitive answer for you tho.
You: That's super, thanks.
Tollie(33226): One moment please while I search.
You: oh, and by the way
You: is Kevin Costner dead? I heard it on my local radio
Tollie(33226): I don't think he is.
You: But it was just broadcast at 2am on Radio Tay!
You: You sure he's not dead? Field of Dreams is my favourite film.
Tollie(33226): I'm pretty sure he's not dead, but if he does happen to be, you'll always have your Field of Dreams to romp in.
You: That's a bit forward! My 'Field of Dreams' is none of your concern, y'cheeky bastard!
Tollie(33226): You could even do some Dances With Wolves while you are in your Field of Dreams.. Now doesn't that sound great!?
You: Not really. I'd rather have a Tin Cup in my Field of Dreams.
Tollie(33226): But if it rains you would have a WaterWorld
Tollie(33226): Also, I do not find any info on whether or not Jeremy Beadle is a hermaphrodite. I'm guessing that is all hear say, just like the Kevin Costner death.
You: ahh, you're a sharp one Tollie
You: but seriously, check the news tomorrow
Tollie(33226): I will...
You: he's totally fucked!
You: he choked on his own pancreas!
Tollie(33226): You have a great night.
Tollie(33226): and don't be out Robin (the) Hood
Tollie(33226): Please RATE ME. Thanks for using ChaCha. Status: Session ended.
