This is exactly the kind of thing that is so hard to explain to non-believers. What they don't realize is that the robot is more literal than their 7-year-old boy cousin, and completely unable to do anything beyond some quick math.

I am taking at least a year off of FIRST, though, so it may not be for the next little while.
