why would we teach robots things that only we know how to do.

it's just going to make it easier for them to live once they take over the world.

our only chance of surviving the robot-aggedon that is to come is by them freezing in the snow when winter rolls around but these guys have gone and taught em how to move it.

we're doomed.

Cool! But I love how the operator is overweight. LOL!

/facepalm!

Awesome use of technology, but one I would never use. I can clear my driveway faster than that, and burn more calories doing so. But kudos to the developer(s) for dreaming this up!!!

COOL someone is using their brain! Can't get a truck down the sidewalk. Many will be jelous of the fat man when he markets them to cites for that reason.

So is he running that thing from the comfort of his garage? Pretty cool if so. I still like my John Deere tractor with the blower and my four wheeler with the plow. I'll bet that thing cost more than both, and I can mow grass with my tractor and go hunting and playing in the mud with my four wheeler too. That only has one purpose.

I'd rather use a shovel. But if I had to use a technological solution to clear my driveway, this would be my weapon of choice:

In case you're wondering, thats a 400+ hp Chevy 454 big block snowblower.

Thats what these things are for:

My brother has a friend that clears the sidewalks around town with a very similar machine
