Amazing photos show the robot shooting a stream right up to the center of the inferno. What a great idea for firefighting! See also www.shark-robotics.com.

Yeah, but what happens when that sucker becomes self-aware? I saw a movie about that.

If the robot's name was "Sonny", don't trust him.

Way to go, Collossus!

The Austin, TX news has the fire listed in their entertainment section. Proof once again of their leftist liberalism.

Putting 700 gallons of water on that inferno is the equivalent of pissing in the ocean. Yes in theory, any amount of water would lower the temperature but it would be a minuscule amount.

Perhaps the actual number is 700 gallons per minute. Although I they were probably no more accurate on the metric to imperial conversion.

The Robot That Saved Notre Dame

Sounds like a late 60's Disney film starring Kurt Russell and Joe Flynn.
