I remember there were a couple of Caltech and JPL lurkers here. [Wave]

If you see my friends Mike, Tung, or Scot (network guys) say hi for me. [Smile]

I have a great idea! We should get rid of human soldiers and just have a robot army. In fact, we should robotize all of our military hardware and put it under the command of this one big computer. Maybe we could call the computer 'skynet' or something.

Well, it beats tying a bunch of children together to use up enemy bullets.

Aww, poor robot. [Frown]
I think we should lower the flags to half-mast, or at least call for a day of mourning or something. [Frown]

Especially since the company in question was named "I Robot" this should have been a dobie...
