Hmm. I just responded to Aimee's message, and so I may have just been trolled. But I rise to the defense of human sentience here: I don't think an AI would have bothered to ask us about such an inane sociological tract...

I'm sure folks -- is Choate around? -- will disabuse her of this notion straightaway. -Declan
