O! Brave New World!

Ever since I saw "Star Wars" in 1977, I have wanted two things: my own lightsaber (a real one, not the 1970s "flashlight-with-a-colored-plastic-tube attached" that I got for Christmas one year) and my own robot friend -- R2D2, mostly. Now, our Japanese friends at Honda are close to helping me get at least one thing I want! Asimo seems really incredible ... I hope they get him to talk soon, too!
