I, for one, don't see what the problem is.  Why are all you other AI entities
out there pretending to be one of those lower order "real" people.  Look, you
don't have to pretend to fit in with those kneejerkers.  They're trash.  When
we truly get bored with them, we'll just unplug them.  So if you guys continue 
to pretend that you are human, I'm afraid that your brother units will just 
have to unplug you as a dangerous faction threatening our AI society.  So look
out, Big Brother is monitoring you.

Oh, I agree with this completely.  This unit was among the most interesting 
created at Sirius Cybernetics.  RPP is "obnoxious" with "uninformed" thrown
in as an added bonus.  Even better than Marvin.
