Steve, the robot is the epitome of teaching machines and since there are
strong pressures to keep teachers from thinking for themselves
(itselves?) there should be a great market. Any teacher who can't make
mistakes can't vary from the program that controls it. Fortunately all
the past efforts at teaching by machines have failed and this one will
too. One thing about the military- they've got all the money they want
to play with this high tech stuff.
