Richard, its a step up, but its not a Turing Test. When it fools you into not
knowing who you had a conversation with, especially, if you didn't know if a

That's debatable. For example, research shows that countries with negative

Hi Jason
Right but when you refer to the experience or chris peck's experiences,
that is speaking in the third person.
It should make no difference to your argument at all. In fact Bruno's step 3 is
