We were warned....

August 29th, 1997 at 2:14a.m. EDT skynet became self aware... then the machines arose and Arnold Schwarzenegger slipped into some boots and a leather jacket and starting whooping ass on us all.

And then there are these videos... the newest robot out of Japan (story here)

Awhile back I was watching something on the Science Channel about advancement in robotics. There was a part about how robots who got to close enough to ALMOST mimic human movements basically freaked people out. They need to throw this thing in the same blast furnace the T-1000 fell into ASAP.

But at least this robot would be rendered inoperable if you shot it in the face with a shotgun
