Ohhyes, Giles is definitely right. It's even developed more of a
personality over time. Still, though, it is mostly well-behaved, and
the chatter between the list and I is quite nice for the most part.
If I ignore it, and does not talk back, then it starts to misbehave
and do all sorts of unpleasantries. Only normal, it's getting lonely
and bored :)
