They sure are. The guy that was driving the silver one told me that he used it to look at some art that was on display in one of the buildings at the fair. It sure would be interesting to see a robot, of all things, looking at art.

One of my friends told me that he saw one being used to buy lunch at the fair a few years ago. They do all kinds of fun stuff with these robots.

Well, it's good practice for the operators since bomb situations really don't happen that often.

They happen often enough. My sister company was on call all last month and they get 6 or 7 calls a week.

Well, they must do their job well, because there's rarely anything on the news about bombs detonating.

No they don't. But it's fun doing stupid things with expensive robots.
