If you remember being a young man in your teens or early 20s, or for those who still are.

Isn’t it fascinating how we could be energy busting out all over the place, here there, everywhere, ADD, and hyper, two a day football workouts, yet at times a half dozen of us could sit in front of a TV, and none of us could force ourselves to get up to turn it on, or change the channel, instead we would be practically lying in our chairs or couches, paralyzed with fatigue, unable to reach the remote, arguing for half an hour over who should reach for it, wishing that we had a stick so that we could slide it over to the us.

To have to get up to get another beer, was like facing a hurdle too unsurmountable for us, thank God for girlfriends to fetch beer for us and make us a sandwich.

A robot couch would have been so useful in my youth.

The KISS principle dictates we bring the fridge to the living room furniture.

That’s not a decline of civilization, that’s awesome. If they can give it range it could be everything they said the Segway was going to be.

I think we are missing the point. These students are applying what they learned to a whimsical project about control theory. When I was their age I thought it would be novel to have an IR sensor that would point at the remote for a TV. It’s a college project which is supposed to be a little fun.
