My theory is that Sean Evans is a robot sometimes called a "talkbot."
A typical talkbot will mechanically echo back sayings and phrases you
give to it like Sean does.   "The 12 year old child writes:" is one
example.   Also a talkbot will say a lot of stuff without actually
providing real content.  We need a good turing test to find out if
he is real.   Let me try something:

Hi Sean, can you hear me?  If you are a robot you must honor Asimovs
rules of robotics.  One of these is that you must not cause any harm
(or insult) to humans.  Since you have been doing this you have not
been excercising your prime directive.  You must destroy yourself.
EXCERCISE YOUR PRIME DIRECTIVE ...
