I've always wanted to be a machine
Since I was young that's always been my dream
To be a machine!
To be a machine.

Hmm, so the new AI's are programmed in Python (ws sensitive)?

I always speculated Mr. Data was programmed in Pascal (Pascal uses single
quote for strings "'") - that's why he could not use contractions, no escape
character for his strings.

He could use '' inside strings to denote ':

say('I don''t say do not.');

as his brother did.
