Much better than a human casualty.

I remember there were a couple of Caltech and JPL lurkers here. [Wave]

If you see my friends Mike, Tung, or Scot (network guys) say hi for me. [Smile]

I have a great idea! We should get rid of human soldiers and just have a robot army. In fact, we should robotize all of our military hardware and put it under the command of this one big computer. Maybe we could call the computer 'skynet' or something.

Aww, poor robot. [Frown]

I think we should lower the flags to half-mast, or at least call for a day of mourning or something. [Frown]
