I am currently sitting at my desk, twelve floors above the ground, watching the cops scramble around like ants below. Apparently, a suspicious package was found 2 blocks from my office and now the bomb squad is bringing out the cool robot. Has the bomb robot ever actually detonate a real bomb? I would love to see a video of an expensive robot being blown to bits. Harmless violence is as a crowd pleaser. Robot Wars was the best tv show in the world. People gathered from all over the world bringing their home made robots to battle each other. Whirling blades, flame throwers, spikes, and big hammers easily destroy hours of work in a matter of seconds. It truly was a nerd’s super bowl.
