Would anyone be interested in starting a newsgroup for amateur robotics ?
I havn't got the slightest idea how to go about starting a new newsgroup,
but I've seen quite a few interesting articles and ideas on the net
concerning robotics. To my knowledge their are only a very few periodicles
dealing with the subject of amateur robotics and robotics experiments, but
I have found a few interesting articles on simple robotic interfaces that
will work off a home computer (one of which I built). If anyone else out
there in net-land enjoys tearing apart their household appliances and
and reconstructing them to do things that they were never meant to
do, please let me know and we'll see if we can get anything rolling !

A young boy of seven walked up the sidewalk to the front door of the
town brothel. After some in depth soul searching he got up the
courage to ring the bell.
A kindly middle-age lady answered the door dressed in a full length
negligee' "Well, hello young man ! How are you today ?"
The boy was obviously nervous so the lady continued in an amused tone
of voice "My name is Pauline, and I'm the Madam of this house. What's
your name ?"
"My name is Billy" the little boy responded "and I want a woman."
Pauline was abashed at the idea of such a sweet young boy of his
tender years wanting a woman "How old are you Billy ?"
"I'm seven years old" Billy stated proudly, "and I want a woman
with a venerable disease."
"A venerable disease ? Don't you mean a venereal disease Billy ?"
"I guess so." shrugged Billy.
"But what would a charming little boy like you want with a woman
that has a venereal disease ?" queried the Madam.
"I'm not a little boy!" exclaimed Billy "I'm seven years old and
I want a woman with a ven...ven... whateveritis disease!"
"But WHY do you want a woman with a venereal disease?" urged Pauline.
"So I can catch it, why else ?" announced Billy.
"But Billy, why would you want to catch something as nasty as a
venereal disease ?" probed Pauline, her interest flared.
"So I can give it to my baby sitter." said Bi
