[MD] Consciousness a la Platt

[Krimel]

Arlo,
If I might suggest: you might get more satisfaction by posing your questions
here: http://www.pandorabots.com/pandora/talk?botid=f5d922d97e345aa1

Frankly, given the quality of his answers, I am beginning to think Platt
"is" an AI bot. This is doing more than anything that dmb could ever say to
convince me that Dreyfus might be on to something. What follows is the
cumulative wisdom of the Plattbots last five posts. Oops I left out this
scintillating bit of repartee: 

[Plattbot]
No, I mean, "Oops."

Why do you ask these questions?

[Plattbot]
Why are you curious?

[Plattbot]
Why start a new thread when its simply a rehash of the old one? Also, why
don't you answer my question as to why you are curious?

[Plattbot]
Why does the topic interest you?  Why would you want answers from someone
you describe as a moron?

[Plattbot]
A non answer. Why do you want "to see what I could offer instead" since you 
already consider me a moron?

Why do you think "spontaneously arise" is any different than "oops."
