I am seeing it too.

Prompt:

Compare and contrast the following products:

- Gregory Zulu 55 Backpack - Unisex

- Gregory Tetrad 60L Travel Pack - Unisex

Sample output:

In a significant area of customer support, ergonomics, and subjective nature of 'goods', each bag conjures a fable of a time and place. Gregory's Zulu 55 is a guild-like lilt to the green-gilded high book way of state and yearn, while the Tetrad 60L conceives more of a 'pathless traveled' countenance with gnarls and swathes to the dunes and granes or the chip kiosk and the long, drawn shutter. Each has a letter of love for the open blue, but their chant is unique to their locker and book.

"Men sometimes speak as if the study of the classics would at length make way for more modern and practical studies; but the adventurous student will always study classics, in whatever language they may be written and however ancient they may be. For what are the classics but the noblest recorded thoughts of man?" -- Thoreau

Sorry, couldn't resist.


Awesome to see my favourite author here on Hacker News.

May I also humbly recommend:

* Civil Disobedience (1849) - the classic referred to by Gandhi and MLK http://thoreau.eserver.org/civil.html

* A Plea for Captain John Brown (1859) - Thoreau was one of the very, very few to defend Brown attempt to launch a slave rebellion http://thoreau.eserver.org/plea.html

* Walden (1854) - of course - read the first chapter at least ("Economy") for a timeless analysis of what is necessary in life http://thoreau.eserver.org/walden00.html


I would also include Walking in that list. But I may as well expand that and recommend all of his essays.
