@gmartin997,The ice was hot after he stole it!Besides, five tons of ice ‘cubed’ (to the third power) is a lot of ice!

I want a robot to iron my clothes. If he can teach a robot to do that, we’re in business.

Five ton of ice from a glacier would only be the beginning if left unprotected. We once had a field near a county road. Once when it was planted in corn, and it came time to pick, the two to three rows nearest the road produced very little: ie motorists had stopped by and harvested it!(Field corn can be roasted if picked at the right time, but just is not as tasty as a good quality sweet corn)

If it can fold fitted sheets, then I’ll be impressed.

Berkley can send me a robot to fold my laundry. And aren’t hyenas all rabid? I won’t want to be near ONE of them.

Now if you could train a hyena to fold laundry, then you would have something!
