It sounds like a robot. This is not to say that the articles are poor or that I don't admire the chutzpah of it even if I resent it, but it sounds like a bot.
As long as we're on the topic, make sure when you write someone like that (as I'm pretty sure you're aware) that the subject line does not reflect the word "biofuel", because some of us have email filters set to filter by subject line, and thus private emails with unchanged subject headings sometimes get filtered into the giant pile. I've tried to change the way I filter, but thus far it hasn't worked. But in this case, it just sounds like a bot, though I guess I was fooled once or twice by her.
