Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I'm pretty sure anyone would turn into a psychotic mother after talking to you for a time, though, Remuthra. Even the men.

Right, let me talk to the CIA about contracting my talents.

Remember how, yesterday, I was told that I can't get the information I needed from the IRS office, and had to do it over the phone or online? And how I couldn't do it online because for some reason my personal information was incorrect?

Well, I tried to do it over the phone, only the first attempt, I try to get the phone system to repeat itself("TO HEAR THE LIST OF OPTIONS AGAIN, PRESS 9"), it bugs out and I have to call again. Only my phone displays "Check Call Restrictions -34" when I try, which I assume means I'm being blocked. So I use my stepdad's phone, and checking the menu of options again, I find that they don't have what I need(a transcript of verification of nonfiling, or proof that I did't file taxes for 2011-2012). I try to get something else(transcript of tax returns), only they "have no data for that year". Also, no option to talk to an actual person.

It's funny because the receptionist at the IRS was dead-set on saying that doing it over the phone was the proper way.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

I'd walk in and insist to do it in person anyway. It sounds to me like this would be the only way to get anything done at this point.

I tried that, but I cannot because I lack a valid photo ID.

This may come in handy.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

I guess I'll try that, although the comments are not making me hopeful.

...And the last four digits are 1040. -_-

Good luck.

As a general rule, by the way, dialing zero once or twice will often kick you to a real person.

Failing to dial anything for long enough usually results in that, too.

In my experience, not dialing anything for long enough results in disconnect.

That does happen, too. It's kind of a crapshoot.
