New Orange Overlords

How bizarre is this?
Herds of robotic traffic cones could soon be swarming onto a highway, closing down lanes and slowing the traffic.
I, for one, welcome our new robotic overlords.
This reminds me of a discussion on Radio 2 yesterday, of how some people were feeling sorry for the Daleks and they should be given a kinder, gentler storyline in the new Doctor Who series...the general consensus was that Daleks are MEAN and SPITEFUL and are KILLNG MACHINES, they are *not cuddly*! When I read your post all I had was this image of these orange Dalek-esque creatures going "EX-TER-MIN-ATE!" Bwahahaha!

BTW Welcome back Garry! Hope the contract is going well for you.
