Have any of you given any thought to the impact of robots doing all of the
manufacturing. harvesting, and production work?  What will we do when cars
are built in lights-out factories?  When machines harvest the crops?  When
office windows are made from self-cleaning glass and Wal-Mart is replaced by
internet shopping?
