    The R2 is destined for failure.

    It may have been designed by NASA, but it was built by GM.

    To say nothing of how they're going to get warranty service. Especially if R2 was built under the auspices of Saturn, Hummer, or Pontiac.

    Seems to me an "R2" robot would only be half a robot.

    The only robot that really matters....



    He can also make all the booze you want....could probably produce some bud, too.
    If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.

    ONOZ! They're mechanizing shoe salesmen. What will foot fetish dudes do for a living now?
