cool stuff. much less intrusive and cumbersome than the raytheon design.

BOYCOTT BERKELEY

[robomatik]

not everyone in berkeley is a fruitcake. this has serious applications.

[Drango]

But everyone doing business in Berkeley funds a regime that hates America. They need to move. And a name change wouldn’t hurt.

[bigbob]

Great for backpacking ;-)

[OCC]

But... can they create an internal version for a Man (or Woman) for lets say 6 million dollars?

[wastedyears]

I’ll test it

Then there’s this:

Should we add this to the Flying Castle wish list?

[robomatik]

Troy Hurtubise seems to be somewhat of an eccentric. that being said - i want one. thanks!

[Monkey Face]

YOIKS! I'm already leery of anything that comes out of Berkeley, since they don't like the US Military.

Prosthetics are good, no matter where they come from. Convince me that the prosthetics will be much better than their source...

;o]

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

MEGAdittos to that!

Aw, come on. We could use a dozen or so Grizzly suits, at least--or did you forget about the whole coordinated robot/zombie threat to civilization thing?

If the Castle budget is an issue, we'll simply cut the proposed ninjas out.

[Monkey Face]

Ummm...the Castle is self-sufficient, so budget is never an issue.

(We have Ninjas?)

The Zombies are Darks’s territory; the Robots are Bob’s baliwick; the Dwarves sre existing under the auspices of Dead Corpse, and the grounds are divided between Tax-Chick with her kudzu/goats and Sandy with her ever-present greenery.

I mean, SOMEone has to take care of the greenhouses....

When it comes to the winery, Dr. Ms. TulipTree is the authority, and the distillery....well, talk to sionsar...he’s the Master...

[robomatik]

jim robinson lives in california. by your logic, you should boycott freerepublic because he lives in the belly of the beast. just because a good idea comes from a liberal town doesn’t make it less of a good idea.

[robomatik]

"In 2000, the University of California at Berkeley, with a grant from DARPA..."

so, you would like to boycott advanced research projects just to spite code pink and commie berkeley city council?
how nice.

"If the Castle budget is an issue, we'll simply cut the proposed ninjas ..."

We can make a few of these by stripping out the components from our spiderbots.

Don't see how you'd use them though. That's why we have spiderbots.

I'm afraid that I have managed to neglect the winery in my absence. I tried to find it again, but I got lost several times.

"I'm afraid that I have managed to neglect the winery in my absence. I tried to find it again, but I got lost several times."

As you might expect for a properly designed space habitat, we have mechanical equipment to use in processing the grapes for harvest, and of course a part of that goes to manufacturing an acceptable wine.

But without your personal involvement and unremitting commitment to excellence recently, I am afraid our premium wines now admittedly lack that je ne sais quoi.

How could you miss it? It's right next to the cheesery, just past the crackery. ;)
