The Mechanical Man has been sent by the Mother Earth to warn the human species of the impending doom that will be placed upon them during this advent of ecological disaster. The Earth was able to ascertain that the Swedes would be the most intelligent, and sensitive to this message so (in a translation error) Swedish and Old Swedish was chosen with English to transcribe the Mechanical Man's message to the People of Earth. His only designation is to remind us of ecological disaster, he was constructed by the Earth Mother to do so.
