I saw pretty much the same thing, from the same IP address, it looks to me like he is testing a spambot, and not covering his tracks very well.
The ip address tracks back to sys19.3fn.net and going to www.3fn.net this appears to be a colocated server 3fn.net provides colocation servers to the UK, the US, the Baltics and Russia.

San Jose, CA US? http://dnsstuff.com/tools/city.ch?ip=64.124.222.176
I would hope that no user in their right mind would say something like that. Looks generated to me.
