A Modern World

            As I think about how to create my robot in the small expanse of time that I was given I also trip over many other thoughts. I am going to finish my wondrous artifact and have him react and act in the world.

             Then I look around as I am walking about and I am concerned at what I witness. People with a terrible sense of preoccupation with themselves. In this twenty-first century I would have expected more progress. We still use fossil fuels to drive our cars. It seems that we use cell phones for the most trivial of conversations. Our leaders are baffled about how to solve the myriad problems facing us as a species.

                    Sam's    2716  EPROM which I programmed in Z80 Machine Language
The Mighty Z80  Sam's Microprocessor Brain


 Into this mess I am going to throw a device that will I believe ,as it develops , will help solve these problems. Despite initial negative reaction we will accept the help that will be offered. Then and only then will we survive !!!!!!
