:57:01
...so l am constantly occupied.
:57:04
l am putting myself
to the fullest possible use...
:57:08
... which is all, l think, that any
conscious entity can ever hope to do.
:57:13
Dr. Poole, what's it like
living for most of the year...
:57:16
...in such close proximity with Hal?
:57:20
lt's like what you said earlier.
:57:22
He's like a sixth
member of the crew.
:57:24
You quickly get adjusted to the idea
that he talks, and think of him...
:57:29
...reallyjust as another person.
:57:31
ln talking to the computer,
one gets the sense that he's capable...
:57:34
...of emotional responses.
:57:36
When l asked him
about his abilities...
:57:38
...l sensed pride in his answer
about his accuracy and perfection.
:57:42
Do you believe that Hal
has genuine emotions?
:57:46
Well, he acts like
he has genuine emotions.
:57:49
He's programmed that way
to make it easier for us to talk to him.
:57:53
As to whether or not
he has feelings...
:57:55
...is something l don 't think
anyone can truthfully answer.
:58:22
Excuse me, Frank.
:58:24
What is it, HaI?
:58:26
We've got the transmission
from your parents coming in.
:58:30
Fine.
:58:31
Put it on here, pIease.
Take me in a bit.
:58:34
Certainly.
:58:48
Happy birthday, darling!
:58:49
Happy birthday.
Many happy returns.
:58:52
A bit higher, HaI.
:58:53
Mother and l are both
feeling wonderful.
:58:56
Ray and Sally were going
to be here...
:58:58
...but Ray's back
went bad on him again.
