Re: pic: Segs in the City
In Washington DC there are at least two places that operate "Segway tours of DC." It is a lot of fun to see them wandering around the city. Everyone that goes on the tours is given a quick riders course, and is required to wear a helmet. The Segways are painted pink and they all follow each other in a line, with the tour guide in front. It is like watching a little row of ducks wandering down the street! They are legal to use anywhere in the city, except on properties operated by the National Park Service - which is most of the Mall area where all the monuments are located.

Once this competition is over, we should donate all of these Poof balls to daycares, elementary schools, neighbors; all the little kids. It would make us look good like, "Here's our Toys for Toddlers gift from us upstanding citizens. And we build robots." - atomikitten [more]
