Ok, how about a new subject to get this group moving again ...

The threat of chemical weapons in the Middle East has made me wonder about the
reality and future of battlefield robots.  

	"Nerve gas ... hah! my brain is made of silicon."

Can anyone share what we have now? (unclassified ... so I guess what we ADMIT
we have.) Army, navy, airforce drones etc.

What is coming?  And what is possible?

Brian
