Possible, but then they aren't capable of getting the 7.2% of our targets that do live in water. You know where I'm heading with this don't you? It's all coming together... Drunken Polar Bears with Laser Guns! They can go across land, under water, the whole thing! And how cool would THAT be! "Hey, Linus, nice threading there, but have YOU got a drunken polar bear with a laser gun? No? Well, FreeBSD has got LOADS of them! HA HA!". Yes, I can picture it clearly... it's all making sense. Even Microsoft would have to evacuate their campus when it got over-run with laser-touting polar bears... > Robots > are so passe (and anyway, we don't have a single laser guidance system > driver in -CURRENT). Do we have any cybernetic hookups ready yet? It's just I'd like to control the polar bears with a mixture of FreeBSD, beer and sealions (to eat). -- Paul Robinson
