[For the entire collection see Zbl 0698.00036.] This is an intriguing albeit eccentric article by one of the true masters of computer algebra. The author has developed a number of ingenious algorithms that allow him to uncover numerous uncanny, unrelated identities using MACSYMA. This paper provides a rapid survey of some of these techniques and their consequences. Among the results presented are \[ \sum_{k\geq 1}{20k-11\over 4(2k-1)k^ 3{2k\choose k}^ 2}=\zeta(3),\quad\sum_{n\geq 1}{2^{-n}\over 1+x^{2-n}}={1\over\log x}+{1\over 1-x}. \] These and numerous other such achievements make this paper clearly appropriate for a proceedings honoring one of the all-time masters of identities, Ramanujan.
