I was told that this is the last part of whatever this thing is. This city seems to be constantly under attack from campy sci-fi monsters.
The monsters ought to get together and plan out their attacks so that they don’t overlap. It’s just so uneconomical for the giant robots and spiders to come rampage in a city that was already destroyed by Godzilla. It’s like a loan shark hiring three different people to spraypaint the same house. Unless it’s a really huge house that requires more coverage.
Part 2
Second part of three of whatever this is supposed to be. These robots clearly do not obey the Three Laws.
Incidentally, the word “robotics” was coined by Isaac Asimov (one of my favourite writers of all time) in his 1941 short story “Liar!” which was eventually included as part of the I, Robot collection. He used the word in his short story under the mistaken impression that it was an existing word and, instead of being severely reprimanded by his grammar teacher and/or editor, ended up being credited with the birth of a new word. That is some awesomerific historifact.
Part 1
What the heck is this? I don’t know. Why am I posting this? Good question. I am sure all will be made clear in due time.
Incidentally, by calculating the amount of money we are willing to spend on things that prolong our lives, (insurances, safer cars, healthcare, tax spendings, etc.) it can be determined that we are on average willing to pay US$6.60 to mitigate a 0.0001% chance of death. This means that each of our lives (a mitigation of 100% chance of death) is worth roughly 6.6 million dollars. By dividing the number of casualties from Godzilla attacks by the total population and multiplying by 6.6 million, we can find the approximate amount of tax dollars per capita we are willing to spend on anti-Godzilla measures.
Interesting theory.
But at least in America, some of those things are not looked upon as methods to improve longevity. Namely, insurance.
Well it depends on the situation. Life insurance will of course not be useful for longevity, but health and non-fatal accidents can be.
So that “See how much you are worth” thing I found online was a lie? =(
It told me I was worth 23k
…but how are we to know the number of casulties from godzilla attack? Well its an interesting idea. That could be used to calculate how much we’re willing to pay on a lot of things.
According to Benjamin Graham, a person’s networth is actually a function of the number of years spent in the work force and age o_O. Besides, there are so many people skipping out on insurance now I’m feeling less and less safe about driving into the city.
And Omo is more “correct” in that insurance is more maintaining your financial health, your physical health being covered is just a byproduct.
Pah, and those evil airlines only consider a life around a million or so (The money thay have to pay the family in case someone dies in their plane) VS the money they’d need to spend on security measures to prevent that kind of accident.
Then i’d rathe be trampeled on by godzilla and be worth 6,6 million :S
I have been suspecting that since you’re the only person who knows these vids, it must have something to do with AFA.

Voila.
Actually, “robot” was first coined by a czech playwright. Though the derivative word “robotics” is due to Asimov later on.
Why is it so short!!!! Whatever it was funny LOL
Hey Dark Mirage, this is a bit random, but I had a question about the Dreamhost promo code in an older post of yours. For HARUHI, is the $97 discount for the first year only, or for each year, in a hosting plan?
I don’t think it works anymore since I switched to HostGator… But I believe it’s the first year only.
