[QUOTE=Simpsons' Military School Principal]The battles of the future will not be fought on a battleground or at sea, they will be fought in space. Or at the top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forward today, your duty is clear, to build and maintain those robots. Thank you.[/QUOTE]
Every time I read about this contest I think of this. I suppose after a while, the opposition will have robots as well. Then the robots will fight until we realize it's more efficient to build flying robots whose sole purpose is to destroy enemy robot building facilities. Then we'll build robots designed to destroy facilities that build flying destroyer robots.
There will be endless intrigue and espionage in a future populated by robotic James Bonds, a cold war based on the possibility of the existence of Robots of Mass Destruction, or rather the potential that they may be built. North Korea will rejoice as it is blessed with the possibility of making new and more outrageous threats.
All because of robots. I blame this man:
