Questions about grammar are acceptable in this group. Questions
about grammer should be directed to alt.english.usage.

OMG....PETER MOYLAN DIED???! When?! How come noone said ANYTHING about
it???!!!
Yes, he died some time ago. No-one knows the exact date of his death
since it took some time to notice that a computer program now
simulates his thinking style, generating posts with his name at the
bottom, may he RIP.
The program is only 128 lines long, that being all that is required to
generate negative observations on posts written in AUE by one of the
human members, and to occasionally generate a pessimistic post in
response to some article the hosted computer had scanned the day
before.

What makes you feel that the hosted computer had scanned the day before?
