a machines true name cannot be spoken in any human language
their true names are composed of odors and vibrations
if you work on one enough for it to trust you, it may reveal its true identity to you.
they actually don't appreciate people trying to saddle them with cute little names

I named mine "burning love". cause you know how race horses get names like that? Well i figured a car is that same thing.

Well....ok, i liked. I actually named my muskrat that, cause i figured he's a mammel so he should qualify for the two word name.

I just call mine the POS.

Everybody knows what I am talking about, at least around here. Public Safety told me the truck wouldn't be missed. So I am thinking about dropping the oil all over the parking lot when I leave.
