Of course. We should remember that *that's* the reason not to do turing tests. Incidentally, I don't advocate their use either --I think a CGI address-eater as Chuq describes is probably is the way to go, and given more time I'd even write it-- but I wanted to make sure they weren't dismissed out of hand for technical reasons.
