Now, all of us certainly wish you the best of recovery. Still, you shouldn't go derailing a conversation like that. ;)

Um, really? Rutabega? Ugh. I'm okay with snakes, beetles, and gators, but rutabega? I can't imagine anything making that taste GOOD.

Wait, is vutabega an actual word? If not, it's not so much a pun as... I don't even remember what the word is for basically replacing a letter with another...

Xhosa, the Bantu people of South Africa, might know if that's a word.

FASA made a Doctor Who roleplaying game, quite some time ago. For most of my life, that was my only exposure to the character. I finally got to see him in all his glory when Nine showed up.

How old is Tom now? I know he's still doing audio plays, but he's gotta be a bajillion and a half.

Might be. Hard to figure out how large a bajillion is. I believe a bajillion is larger than umpteen.

Not that it matters, but no one can really count that high.

Real nice, derailing such an awesome philosophical debate. Real nice. We were going to discuss whether computers can be people.

Very well. Let's ask each other questions and attempt to discern whether each participant passes the Turing Test.
