Also interesting is this collection of "poetry" generated by Racter after it was released to the general public: http://www.101bananas.com/poems/racter.html

It's interesting how, long after one is aware of the complete randomness of output like this, one's monkey brain is still prepared — against all rationality — to read profundity into gibberish.
