  2. Re:Why Harry? on Top Banned Books of 2003 · · Score: 1, Funny

    Purely in the interests of science, I have replaced the word
    "wand" with "wang" in the first Harry Potter Book
    Let's see the results...

    "Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry.
    "Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got
    expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me
    wang in half an' everything

    A magic wang... this was what Harry had been really looking
    forward to.

    "Yes, yes. I thought I'd be seeing you soon. Harry Potter."
    It wasn't a question. "You have your mother's eyes. It seems only
    yesterday she was in here herself, buying her first wang. Ten and a
    quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wang for charm work."
    "Your father, on the other hand, favored a mahogany wang.
    Eleven inches. "

    Harry took the wang. He felt a sudden warmth in his fingers.
    He raised the wang above his head, brought it swishing down through the
    dusty air and a stream of red and gold sparks shot from the end like a
    firework, throwing dancing spots of light on to the walls

    "Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wang,
    tapped the lock, and whispered, 'Alohomora!"

    The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll
    will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's
    wang had still been in his hand when he'd jumped - it had gone straight
    up one of the troll's nostrils.

    He bent down and pulled his wang out of the troll's nose. It
    was covered in what looked like lumpy gray glue.

    He ran onto the field as you fell, waved his wang, and you
    sort of slowed down before you hit the ground. Then he whirled his wang
    at the dementors. Shot silver stuff at them.

    Ok
    I have found, definitive proof
    that J.K Rowling is a dirty DIRTY woman, making a fool of us
    all
    "Yes," Harry said, gripping his wang very tightly, and moving
    into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind on
    flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now, he might
    hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that, or he would hear
    her again, and he didn't want to... or did he?
    O_______O
    Something silver-white, something enormous, erupted from the
    end of his wang

    Then, with a sigh, he raised his wang and prodded the
    silvery substance with its tip.

    'Get - off - me!' Harry gasped. For a few seconds they
    struggled, Harry pulling at his uncles sausage-like fingers with his
    left hand, his right maintaining a firm grip on his raised wang.

    You must program each individual joint one by one, trial and erre style.

    yes, but nothing stops you from adding some funky multijoint joystick controllers - this way you could control the robot live with a friend (2 persons, one for legs, one for hands, I know this sounds crazy .. well it is :P).

    No feedback, no sensors, no remote control! just memory for the movements

    you can read servos position with trivial encoder (computer mouse has two) .. hell, every servo has one (actually an ordinaty potentiometer) to control its position (maybe you could even hack servo electronics to read its "attempts to correct position" and use it as a measure of a preasure servo takes), add electronic compass, dunno about attitude (there are sensors for that, but expensive, seen some in electric heli project)
