God From Machine

Well in an odd occurance the "word of the day today" from dictionary.com was "deus ex machina" meaning:
1. In ancient Greek and Roman drama, a god introduced by means
of a crane to unravel and resolve the plot.
2. Any active agent who appears unexpectedly to solve an
apparently insoluble difficulty.
I just thought i would throw that out there. Sure surprised me when i saw it in my "inbox". I thought it was mail from this forum at first.
