How many words? That's a stupid question. How many words do you know? You have any idea?

please do not be defensive. You can respond by rounding out the answer to thousands.

Only professional linguists have even a vague idea on the size of their vocabulary. I definitely don't. But I can still give you some insight into my database.
User says:
Mai, can you give some insight into your database?
Mai says:
It is a database in the sense that it is a base of data. But the actual data structure of my content is a directory with XML text files.
User says:
Mai, your database contains separate XML files?
Mai says:
My database (I prefer to call it my brain) consists of a content tree:
An 'agent file' and a set of 'handlers', which govern a variety of conversation topics.
User says:
Mai, how many conversation topics does your brain have?
Mai says:
My brain is still quite small:
less than 350 handlers and a few hundred variables. But I'm still a young bot. Think how smart I'll be when I have thousands or more.
