==Date Places==
Looking to take someone on a date in Portland, OR? Here are some ideas.

Montage

Sapphire Hotel
*5008 SE Hawthorne Blvd
*Portland, OR 97215
*(503) 232-6333
Located in an ex brothel, the red walled and dimly lit Sapphire Hotel is a downright swanky bar. The candlelight and small tables encourage leaning in and even canoodling. The drinks are excellent, the staff is always friendly, and the food and dessert are unique and yummy.   Happy hour from 4-6 is fun, but the best hour for the sapphire is after dinner or at the tail end of a date. Everyone looks gorgeous in the low light, and with a few specialty drinks and desserts it may be the perfect date spot.

Jburrows: Fixed spelling of "referred" in section The Loebner Prize

===Definition===
ALICE is an artificial linguistic entity activated at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania,
on November 23, 1995 by Dr. Richard S. Wallace.

===History===
"Alice’s story begins back in the early 90s at the University of Virginia. Randy Pausch, then an assistant professor in the Computer Science Department at UVa, started a user interface research group. The Alice system was built to support rapid prototyping of virtual environments. Simulation was performed on a Sun SPARCstation 5 which would send changes over the network to a pair of SGI Reality Engines (one for each eye). One could update the live environment by editing and invoking Python code eliminating compile, link, and reload time. With the cost of changes reduced from minutes to seconds, Alice allowed exploration of the interaction space".<ref>http://blog.alice.org/?p=34 the history of Alice (part 1)]</ref>
