But I wanted to ask you to take off the video from YouTube. There are many people holding the copyright for this video and I went through a lot of work to get permission to use it on Robot Watch. Please do this as soon as possible. Thank you very much in advance. Norri Kageki http://www.botjunkie.com/2009/03/23/anthropomorphization-turns-evil-appliances-into-friendly-robots/
