Lessons to be Learned

You may have read about the rescue of the Russian submarine Priz. The Priz had become entangled in a net and couldn't surface. A British rescue team used a "remote controlled robot" to cut the netting and freed the sub before the crew ran out of oxygen.

There are two lessons to be learned that may not be obvious at first glance:

1. Despite how they are portrayed in movies and on TV, not all robots are killer robots.

2. Despite how wives feel about them, not all remote controls are evil.
