"Never Act with Children or Animals"

This quote is often attributed to the famous misanthrope W.C. Fields but the sentiments are so timeless that I have no doubt it goes back to the very beginnings of what we understand as public entertainment, the Greek Theater.  I'm sure they took a particularly dim view of fauns and satyrs, those goat/human hybrids who combine the baser qualities of each.

Everything old is new again.  And so on a recent winter afternoon I found myself helping on a video shoot for the robotics team.  We'll see how it emerges from editing but the premise is that maybe you can teach goats to write code.  

Goats of course being Chaos Engines it escalated quickly....

I'll be putting comments into "moderator" format for a while. Sometimes they get a bit off topic. I'll post almost all of them even the One Weird Trick Spamsters if they amuse me. I also answer my email at dagmarsuarez@gmail.com
