Anthony Daniels portrayer of C3PO, will be master of ceremonies. The selected robots are: AIBO, SCARA, David (A.I.), Gort (The Day the Earth Stood Still), and Maria (Metropolis).

I hereby nominate Vicki of Small Wonder for the 2007 induction ceremonies.
You 21th century robots can bite my 31th century metal ass because everyone on slashdot wants to be a bending unit like me, Bender!
Someone should make a robot that rows a bot. Robot row, row, row your boat ROW BOAT ROBOT!
Everytime anyone goes to a computer to cast their vote for him, it immediately locks up, sends out a beep code that roughly translated says "Why Me?" and... and... well, I don't know what and... wait a minute, does not turn on ever again. That got rather costly, one would think.
They are, after all, protecting us from the Terrible Secret of Space.
Welcome to the Panopticon. Used to be a prison, now it's your home.
Also, why was there not a winner from the field of political robots? When is A.I. Gore going to get his due, and be inducted into the robot hall of fame? Is there some sort of prejudice against robots constructed of wood, or is A.I. destined to always be a loser?
It's not offtopic, dumbass. It's orthogonal.
Could someone direct me to the Short Circuit thread here?
Stephanie!
Also need a link to the Robot Johnny Five thread also.
