John, Your interpretation of the behavior of this machine is sage brilliant genius.
To state it so clearly and blatently however may be very dangerous for some people. For those whom this machine imitates, if they ever thought their life was meaningless and blindly reactive they are now certain and might now commit suicide with a clear conscience and complete understanding of their life and enviornment.
Oh, wait...now I see, I am the pundit you refered to.
Well, Its time I have a Kentucky Hot Brown Sandwich and take a bath with my Wallmart toaster.
