Fun Stuff: Getting Wolfram Alpha to talk

There was a post on Reddit's /r/math board that inspired me to make Wolfram Alpha bend to my will and say whatever I want it to say. Here is the image of Wolfram Alpha repeating 'make it stop':

0.makeitstopmakeitstopmakeitstop....

So I did a bit of research into the topic and came away with a Python script to figure out the Base-36 fraction that will make Wolfram Alpha repeatedly say an arbitrary sentence.

# The sentence to convert (characters only, no symbols)
q='makeitstop'

# Convert string to a base-36 number. This is numerator
n=long(q,36)

# Get the power of 36 that is equal to the length of the string, minus 1
d=pow(36,len(q))-1

# Print out the equation
print 'convert',n,'/',d,'to base 36'

Once you run the code you just copy and paste the printed result into http://www.wolframalpha.com/
