Ian,
Creepy, but *very* impressive!
For a robot to be able to walk on ice and snow and constantly keep its balance, even when being kicked, is *amazing*!
Give it a few years, and we'll have the Six Million Dollar Man for *real*!

I want one so my real dog will have something he can assault with impunity. Darn critter is as quiet and gentle as a lamb around me or my kids, not so much around anyone else.

What the hell is up with your screenname here, anyway, DogBrain? Why would you choose such an ugly combination of words...?
That's one of my things... some words.. and some combinations of words.. are simply ugly, and it's like I can feel/taste it or something. Blech

And what the hell is up with your screenname? Why would you choose such a "look at me, I'm a pathetic basement dweller" combination of words?

Dogs are beautiful.
Brains are beautiful.
The way a dog thinks is beautiful--simple, direct, honest.
You are simply flat-out wrong.

I like Ian, he has this awesome philosophy that I want to learn - I'm practicing it at the norwegian forum and it works great!
