more OT: Ok, I don't know what this robot dog is all about, but if somebody is taking orders, can I have one? Ever since I read about Jawahar, the stuffed dog in Rushdie's The Moor's Last Sigh, I've had this hankering to go sauntering around the streets of New York, dragging a stuffed dog on skates in my wake. Given the intensity with which my neighbourhood is fighting the dog wars, obligatory law suit included, with pleas to the Judge to make an Honorable Visit and Verify the Truth, about dying plants, the health hazards of poodle puddles, and whether people who don't pick up after their dogs should merely be heftily fined or summarily dispatched to jail --- given all these weighty workings of a community gone mad I'll probably be arrested for cruelty to dead animals. Yes, a robot dog sounds like a workable compromise. It may not pee all over, and that would be a good thing; but does it still do unspeakable things to well-shod legs in elevators?
