Devyn,
88888 Dihedral is our resident bot, not a human being. Nobody knows who
controls it, and why they are running it, but we are pretty certain that
it is a bot responding mechanically to keywords in people's posts.
It's a very clever bot, but still a bot. About one post in four is
meaningless jargon, the other three are relevant enough to fool people
into thinking that maybe it is a human being. It had me fooled for a long
time.
