Thanks.  It would have been in #nottor .  Very sad for me, the lack of a
log.  The interaction had links to a lot of things I have lost memories of
that seem very important, and feel very responsible for.  I know when I
used to spend time active on irc, I would always keep automatic channel
logs, myself.  It seemed like a common thing to do.

Which would be pointedly producing uninhibited increased interaction
complexity, or something.

Anything my occasional violation of expectations and bounds could find or
provide?

Thanks for your reference to the complex, meaningful and directly relevant,
hard-to-follow animatrix episode.  I saw it when it came out, but don't
remember it much.  The wild learning robot is tricked onto the empty stage
and separates from "embarrassment".  I found a scene of interconnection
like you described but didn't keep hold of it.  Hopefully I watch the whole
thing again.
