A Conversation with my Great Grandfather
I used the AI question answering website wolframalpha.com to have a conversation with my great grandfather. He wasn’t particularly easy to talk to ...

Dear Great Grandad. I wanted to talk to you about something important to me. I would have come and talked to you face to face, but that felt difficult so I am writing to you here instead. The thing is, I’m Queer. I don’t know how you feel about that, but I wanted to stop hiding it from you and the rest of the family. Mum knows and both my sisters. They have for years. I mean, I’m 47 years old and I've been married to my partner for about five years, but we never talked about it. I was worried telling you because you might think less of me. Perhaps we can talk about this a little when we next meet, or if you have any questions you can ask. I know this might feel strange or a shock, but I’m still the same person I’ve always been. Sending lots of love and sorry it's been so long since we saw one another. Aslan
