Sure, I'm not denying it. I think its the giant robot portion I was caught up on mainly.. And yeah, Benders been that too.. Several times I'm sure.

Never used to miss a Futurama episode when I had my tivo in action. Simpsons too. And hell, this makes me think of that one "simpsons did it" South Park episode.

Bender and robots.. "Bender's Ass" would be a good name for a battlebot with a wedge design of some sort. :P However, the robot the guy in this article built is closer to what they use in this:(http://www.robots.org/events.htm) kind of robot fighting. In particular the Sumo Bot ones.

Hrm.. Looks like someone is getting close to having the technology necessary to build a fighting robot based on the brain of a Rat. Yes, this is cool. I like the idea of being able to watch robots with rat brains fight.

That's the kinda future entertainment I want. Oh yeah. Robots the size of large SUVs with animal brains going at it in the desert.
