April Fools

This page may take several minutes to load; be patient, as it has to call the perl script over 100 times. The text was produced from one AP article ("U.S. says troops kill at least seven Iraqi women and children at checkpoint when driver failed to stop," 3/31/03). This article was not reproduced in any way but simply used as a template. Five other articles on the war from the next few days were also utilized for data. In this version, nouns, intransitive and transitive verbs, speaking subjects, nationalities, dates and numbers, and certain other generic syntactic units have been replaced by placeholders which call a perl script that selects randomly from all occurences of these variables in the five articles.
