I did want to point out that, while I did focus my dialog on activities that inspired kids to pursue STEM-based careers, I actually do build robots and even made some versions commercially available. Please see http://CMIL.west.cmu.edu and http://www.senseta.com for examples. I also thought that the talks during the session were extremely engaging and impressive!

Thanks. Also I wanted to say the "sucker for live demos" line did not go unnoticed. Fantastic set of posts and links, these. Thanks.

The elderly, the disabled, even minors. Today, if they live in the suburbs, they're pretty seriously cut off. With a self-driving car, the problem just goes away (at least for those who can afford one, directly or indirectly). Of course, never having to look for a parking spot will also be neat :-) η Never mind getting an extra hour’s nap - a self-driving car will be a great boon to the people who can’t drive, for one reason or another.
