This Weekend @ the Movies

I didn't even plan it, but I saw three very different perspectives on robots this weekend.

• I, Robot: Takes Asminov's three basic laws and then turn it into a popcorn fest starting the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Really, I wonder how much they paid just for the geek cred and so that they could have a cool title.
• Ghost in the Shell 2 - Innocence: Took eighteen years to release the sequel, but it was worth waiting for. An interesting mixture of hand-drawn and CG animation that ponders how close man and machines really are.
• Robots: My first babysitting experience with my three year old niece. It was entertaining but nothing really too memorable.

Sorry for the delay, I'm having some firewall issues with my new server. Updates should be more regular now that this year's March Madness is over.

Grammar checking

So I type:
"Gaining access to the MTA is done by contacting the Regional Distribution Unit (RDU)."

But MS Word suggests:
"Contacting the Regional Distribution Unit (RDU) does gaining access to the MTA."

Didn't realize that I had the Yoda grammar check turned on! Reminds me to catch the Revenge of the Sith trailer on The O.C. tomorrow night.
