(Rossum’s Universal Robots) Saturday night. We were looking for a deeper understanding of robot-human interaction in an angst-filled modern world. And we found it! Below you can see some of our illustrious friends that became enlightened.

But wait! There is still more… You can see the final showing this afternoon at 3pm. Find out for yourself, is there robot love? The ones that have seen the play can assure you … there is, oh there certainly is.

Updates as the day unfolds.

EDIT: It’s done. We handed out about 4 flyers. We gave out more laptop advice than anything, but we had a presence. Now for the kodak moment: New Student Orientation 6/06

I had to wrestle with the user management system, but I believe I have won.

The time to begin putting up content is upon us. Let me know if you want anything posted to the site. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
