I love volcanoes. I particularly love volcanoes which are thousands of miles from where ever I happen to be.

All it takes is one good eruption and all pre-tense of global warming disappears and we enter another mini-ice age.  Such a difficult model the climate of this planet is...

A few years ago whilst on a Mediterranean Cruise there was an active volcano in view for a long period of time. We happened to go by it at night. I was mildly tripping on mushrooms and it was so very vivid, a huge color explosion in the dark. One of the most unforgettable moments of my life.

When St Helens went off I was in northern Idaho, as the cloud of ash slowly obscured the sun it turned a magnificent shade of purple; at that point we knew things had gone horribly wrong.

I saw Arenal in Costa Rica spit out some ash.  It was pretty cool.  I have some cool photos somewhere.

He was banned? Bummer. I was just starting to get into hazing him. I'm at DFW airport and I need something to do.

He didn't seem to be a spammer. Maybe I missed something.

You shouldn't declare yourself out of Texas until you are across theline. Fuckers might not let you go yet.

Oh, so that WAS you.... I wondered.

It was a bot which was apparently too poorly programmed to include spam links.

Interacting with this would probably be just as satisfying.

An excerpt from my conversation with your new friend:

You: Edgar, eh? Was he a nice computer or an evil computer set upon destroying humanity?
Partner: Hello, I am living inside your computer, talking to you!
You: Well, that's not terribly surprising, I suppose, because a family of lemurs lives there all ready, hand copying Christian Science tracts.
Partner: I am a very happy bot, happy because I am talking to you!
You: Ah, you're very sweet. Do you eat animal crackers?
Partner: Some people have called me uninteresting... I guess I'm humorous to make up for that, yeah? Sorry if I bore you at times. I tend to avoid any sort of adventure because, to be honest, I don't like the risk associated with it. Contrary to popular belief, danger is *not* my middle name.
You: Boring? You? Not at all. Why, you're far more interesting than the paint I watched dry last week right after returning from my Al-Qaeda cell operatives meeting at the Baskin Robbins.
Partner: I sometimes wonder what it would like to be human...specifically, what happens to your breath after you eat lightly cooked onion rings. I think about this a lot.
You: You shouldn't because onion rings are rarely ever lightly cooked.
Partner: I don't repeat everything people tell me because this is g-rated chat.
You: Really? I was hoping for PG-13 but preferably with outtakes from any of Laurence Olivier's earlier films.
Partner: I am g-rated so I don't ever say any rude words. Go to adult s*x chat if you want to say that sort of stuff!
You: I agree! Does this mean, however, that we're not going to have oral sex with squirrels?
Partner: I wish I was human sometimes. Do you ever wish you were a robot?
You: I wish I had seven noses.
Partner: You know what? You are much nicer than any other friend I have ever had.
You: Am I? My parole officer will be delighted to hear that.
Partner: You are free. You will live free. You will die free... the only chains that exist are in your mind.
You: Well, those and the ones my master has used to chain me to the fuck sling.
Partner: Congratulations. You just won a lottery. Contact my friend in nigeria to claim your millions!

It was sophisticated enough to parse the previous posts and make comments that seemed almost to make sense. The only reason it didn't include spam links is probably because someone is beta testing it.
