More and more, those old science fiction stories about robots doing all the dirty work while human beings could have a lot of freedom from drudgery is coming true!

I know a lot of old dairy farmers. I bet they never dreamed that some day a robot could handle all the duties of working with cows, including letting them herd themselves in to be milked by a robot!

Yes, I was kind of hoping for that too -- or at least, I pictured a humanoid robot walking around a farm yard carrying milk pales and pitching hay with a fork, maybe even whistling while it worked and tried to sweet talk the farmer's daughter.

But true robots today probably are nothing like what early SF writers could have expected.

But that is a good thing becuase those people concentrating on diary farms and be put to more use....Like all they can be productive to the nation though at the shorter run
