@error_bot consult guide about improbability generator

Bridge Score: 110 Moves: 204
The Guide checks through its Sub-Etha-Net database and eventually comes up
with the following entry:Scientists have long known how to produce FINITE amounts of improbability,
using a finite Improbability Generator, an atomic vector plotter and a good
source of Brownian motion. Recently, however, they have learned to generate
INFINITE amounts, thanks to the invention of the Infinite Improbability
Generator. It is rumored that an Infinite Improbability Drive, based on
this new generator, is currently under development. Also see the entries on
atomic vector plotter and Brownian motion.>

The Guide checks through its Sub-Etha-Net database and eventually comes up
with the following entry:The atomic vector plotter is one of the primary application devices of
Improbability Physics.> Bridge Score: 110 Moves: 206
The Guide checks through its Sub-Etha-Net database and eventually comes up
with the following entry:The best randomness generator is simple Brownian motion. Any hot gas or
liquid is a good source.>

We need to combine the portable improbability generator, the atomic vector plotter, and the ATS.
-
Or we could just smack Marvin.
-
Marvin!
Come over here...
-
@PleegWat Can we use the liquid mostly but not entirely unlike tea, for the brownian motion?
-
@xaade The Advanced Tea Substitute, also abbreviated as ATS? I think so.
