Not only that, but robots are better than doctors and surgeons.

Those "robots" are in no way autonomous, and therefore aren't robots.

You would help your point if you had any idea what you were talking about.

Those machines are getting more skillful every day. The newer ones in opthalmogogy may someday save your sight, although will do little to help your arguments. It is this technology that could be built upon by the space program. It is happening--but if we could turn the obsession with riding into more of this science--wow...

And the Deep Impact machine/robot/computer was most absolutely autonomous. It was over 150 MILLION miles away from earth, the bullet was traveling at 18K mph at an object moving 100K mph. There was no time for any humans to holler "yahoo!"--the hardware and the software made the decisions (designed, of course, by brilliant engineers)

I'd really rather see pictures of the solar system 200M miles away than listen to some guy gush over how much he's enjoying the view of EARTH.
