I am not a robot

I had a rather strange exchange with a random stranger via iChat earlier, and it seems I did not pass the turing test. They didn't either...

The other party will remain anonymous, though please comment/contact if you have the same thing, I'm intrigued. I'm particularly pleased to know that in the future only robots will use proper punctuation.

Transcript (they are in bold):
