Annakie: Are you going to believe somebody who calls herself "DangerGirl"?
Julie Tinkerbell: I'm going to have them while you (key2). How does that sound, Annakie?

This is the keyphrase that was matched, and the corresponding response doesn't even contain a (key2).

Keyphrase: are you (going|planning) to, what will you, (are your plans|do you have planned|are your plans)

response: I'm going to (mem-youthinkishould) while you (mem-youwantto). How does that sound, (mem-nickname)?

Jaden: Hello. My name's Jaden. It's nice to meet you.
Aries: No I'm not.. please don't ever say that again.

That phrase is triggered by 'you are my' & I'm not seeing where it came from in that exchange.

The AI engine sometimes adds "you are" to the beginnings of sentences. It can be rather annoying when it's inappropriate.

But very helpful when it's not.

I second that, ladydyke! It's all too easy to take the Professor for granted, not to mention nagging him for reforms (who, me?). But actually, it is quite remarkable what he is able to accomplish! There are a huge number of features in this operation! And any program dealing with natural language (e.g., English, the worst of them all as far as I know) has got to be hairier than Halley's Comet! And he does all this for us for free! What a remarkable individual!

I didn't know Halley's Comet had hair.

Professor:

I replied to both your messages, and tried your icon twice. I'm just posting this in case none of them made it through.

Eugene:

Well, the word "comet" comes from the Latin word for "hair." I guess the ancients thought that what we call the "tail" of the comet looked like hair (blowing in the solar wind! Of course they didn't have the idea of the solar wind. Well, probably someone did, actualy. Anyway.) So this "hair" extends thousands or even millions (?) (any astronomers here?) of miles -- that's a lot of hair!
