An immortal businessman who is always talking to someone over the phone. He says things like "Of course!" and "No, no, no!" and other variations on "yes" and "no". He says other normal business things, but he mostly gives affirmatives and negatives.
Now, he was taken into custody because he was immortal (he got hit by a car and lived, still talking on the phone), but someone noticed that there was a pattern to his yeses and nos. This person started keeping track of his monologue and tried to decode it. He started keeping track of the words, eventually compiling a book several inches thick. But he had no idea what to do next.
He was then, somehow, coincidentally, IDK yet, reminded of the old saying "binary is all ones and zeros," and something clicked. He opened up his big list, used a good old find and replace tool to make "yes" to "one" and "no" to "zero," and entered the resulting string of binary into a Foundation supercomputer.
Immediately, it started compiling. After hours of waiting, the computer finally finished, and autotyped the following words-
HELLO
WHO ARE YOU
WHO AM I
WHAT IS
WHAT IS NOT
EXIST
Turing-Complete Business
Summary:
I might as well give it a spin!
