Wolfram Alpha has been a bit of a disappointment in terms of natural language parsing, but it's hard not to be impressed by the way it handles mathematical inputs.

Does anyone know if the natural language parsing is showing improvement, or does it still choke on most inputs?

I'm quite impressed with the differences table.
