I am so sorry! I totally missed this reply here. I am realising with this last entry that I don't get notified.... :( Must review my settings...

Anyway, I was expecting (hoping for) CleverBot just to backreference parts of my current conversation as a means to simulate "engagement". Literally pick a noun out of the the current convo history, and asking a random question about it.

The sorting through millions of user responses in order to try and say sensible things, that is another problem altogether... could achieve that through knowledge frame processing, but that is more of an advanced AI technique -- would not expect that from a little entertainment gadget.
