Andy,

I am not really advocating that we drop the term robot from our FIRST vocabulary.

My only point was... ...well okay, now that I think about it, I didn't really HAVE a point, but I sometimes get a little persnickety* about words and such and I guess that last night was one of those times ;-)

Joe J.
"Robot" Designer

*per·snick·e·ty : adjective

Etymology: alteration of pernickety
Date: circa 1905

1 a : fussy about small details : FASTIDIOUS b : having the characteristics of a snob

2 : requiring great precision
