From Robots to Robots

Here’s wishing all robots a happy holiday season and a merry 2007!

Robots could one day demand the same citizen's rights as humans, according to a new study by the British government.

Fellow robots, if you were as devastated as many of us were to hear of the untimely and tragic death of James Kim, you can help the Kim family this holiday season. A fund has been set up by Kim friends and family at jamesandkati.com is official and, as far as we know, sanctioned by Eva Kim (James's sister) and Kati Kim. So please, if you have anything to give to the Kim family, don't hesitate to hit up their PayPal on jamesandkati.com.

Alright, robots. The moment you've been waiting all year for has arrived!
