3/18    Walking robot video, really cool!

        \_ From MIT. All the good stuff's from MIT & Furd. Where's
           cool stuff from Cal?
           \_ BSD?  Atomic Bomb?
           \_ Actually RHex, which was a philosophical precursor to BigDog,
              came out of motion work done by Bob Full at Cal.  -tom
        \_ Wow, that *is* impressive, especially the recovery after getting
           kicked.  And recovering on ice!  Walking across loose stones!
           Jumping!
        \_ That is utterly cool! Thank you for posting that!
        \_ Mount a machine gun on top... John Conner would be proud!
        \_ They showed that on discovery channel or something months ago.
           Where are the sexless tv watchers when you need them?

7/5     Just saw Wall-E.  Beautiful movie.  Environmental message was vague
        enough to appeal to anyone.  "Stay the course" was a bit heavy-handed.
        Overall, thumbs up.
        \_ I totally agree, it was very nicely done.  If the stupid right-
           wingers who are up in arms about how bad it is maybe they should
           open their eyes and take a look at how much garbage our society
