"Living robot" Escapes Lab, Makes It To...Parking Lot
jerkychew writes "This is either really cool or really scary, depending on how you look at it. According to this article, scientists in England have been experimenting with so-called 'living robots' that think and act for themselves. During an exercise that pitted the machines against each other in battle, one of the machines, named Gaak, was taken out of the competition and left alone for fifteen minutes. When the scientist returned to retrieve Gaak, he found that the machine had broken free from its 'cage', and made it all the way to the lab's parking lot before it was apprehended! Can the T-1000 be far behind?" Update: 06/20 20:36 GMT by T : Thanks to skywalker404, who points out the Magna site and Professor Noel Sharkey's web page.

Just to find the robot outside does not mean it went out on purpose. If parents don't watch their sprouse they might find them anywhere, on a parking lot for example. So if the did not equip it with a high power laser or a gaus rifle, I think there's nothing to worry about.

This area of the UK is also renowned for holding the highest concentration of child molesters in the country, often peaking at 80% of adults in the rural areas.
The British film 'Brassed Off' is a fine document of this culture. Ostensibly a 'comedy' about a Yorkshire based Brass Band, those who haven't seen the film before may be shocked to discover that the final half hour is a graphically disturbing depiciton of a pederastic orgy.
