a little bit of laughter with "That's Just Too Friggen Cool Man!" escaped my
lips after reading the article.
Alright... Im cool with the bots eating food now that I have seen that it is
becoming a reality...that's all it took.
But I still hate love and feelings between robots, and I still don't like
the Trigger words each time they transform in ANY of the Transformer lines..

Ah, I see. So they can think, feel, eat, and apparently are sentient
enough to have wars and a political system, but they should be
incapable of love or hate of one another?
You're weird, dude.
And activation codes kick ass. TERRORIZE!!!

You give them intelligence to do all this (love , politics, feel, eat).. and
then you imply that the Activation codes are needed? Are they not smart
enough to transform without an activation code? Do you have to say, "I AM
AWAKENED" when you wake up? Or, "I AM TINKLING" when yo you go to the
bathroom?
Or, "EAAATTT" before you heat a Ham Samich?
I don't argue with you on the Wierd statement,

Why should it have to become a reality for it to be acceptable in a
work of fiction?
> But I still hate love and feelings between robots,
What's supposed to be so bad about that? You're missing the point if
you think Transformers need to adhere to what humans are capable of
building. They're an ancient race of alien robots for $DEITY's sake.

As far as I'm aware, sentient shape shifting robots from outer space
aren't a reality so how do you accept them? You've stated elsewhere that
you like the Star Wars movies. Well guess what. Lightsabers aren't a
reality. Do you gripe about those too?

Please dont say Im flooding Zorb.. Im only replying.
I didn't say I hated fiction.. it's when fiction gets way too deep the way
it was when I THOUGHT that consuming robots were ridiculouse.
Transforming robots are not ridiculous, I've seen transforming cars at
shows...
Lightsabers are just weapons.. I never complained about weapons that could
be made, and that are possible... look at the lazer.
I had a problem with love and robots .. and eating and robots...
Now I dont have a problem with eating and robots , because its fact.
I dont have a problem with other fictional stuff either.. MAN PYRE.. have
you NEVER said, "OH MAN THAT"S JUST STUPID!" not counting about me...
Do you watch every fictional movie with no contradicting opinion????

Actually, lightsabers are a theoretical possibility (as in, they've been
explained in source material).
The saber blade is basically an arc, except that both ends come from the
same point. A magnetic field is used to push the arc into an enlongated U
shape, so that the tip of the beam is actually the midpoint of the arc. The
colours depend on what sort of crystal the lightsaber uses to focus (or
"phase") the beam. Some lightsabers are "dual-phased," using two crystals to
maintain a beam twice as long as normal sabers (useful for impaling a foe
who has jumped to what he/she ~thinks~ is a safe distance). The
"double-bladed" saber is merely two lightsabers built end-to-end, and can
sometimes be detachable to function as "twin sabers." (Obviously, this
wouldn't really explain the fact that sabers can't pass through one-another,
but at least it's something.)
ObTFs: Whether or not this theory can be used for energo-swords or GW-style
beam-sabers (which seem slightly more "flexible" than lightsabers) is an
open question.

Whoo, boy, no.
There's this book called "The Science of Star Wars." (there's
another called "The Science of Star Trek"--and another called
"The Science of Superman"; each by different authors) that
casually rips apart the dreams of every fanboy in the world with
the very important message: None Of It Is Real.
I recommend them to everyone.
>The saber blade is basically an arc, except that both ends

A loop, and the ability to make the degree of arc equal 0
degrees or 180 degrees is impossible.
>A magnetic field is used to push the arc into an enlongated U

And the ability to make such a definite magnetic field of such force that fits
in something the length of a human's hand (or Yoda's hand, even) is
"practically impossible"--such that the technology needed to make this is
incomparable with the technology level present in the films.
Of course, the technological level present in the films is
inconsistant.
>(Obviously, this wouldn't really explain the fact that sabers can't
>pass through one-another, but at least it's something.)
Which is the final straw in the lightsabers don't work argument.
Or the first, depending on your mood.
But why start on lightsabers as the Thing Which Breaks Star Wars Possibility.

Energo-swords have always seemed, to me, to merely be swords
wreathed in a film of energy, which makes so much more sense
and is *actually possible*. But we're talking about a world of
inconsistant minimization and maximization (not the BW/BM
thing), giant alien robots who can transform, where a blow from one of them
*won't* kill an otherwise average human of any age . . .
I've never seen Gundam Wing in any iteration (something I keep
meaning to rectify) but if their beam-sabers are "flexible" in any
meaning of the term, then they're even less possible than
lightsabers.

Example: Grimlock.
In one of the US comics, he takes out his sword. Sword looks like a
plain red sword. He powers up his sword. *ZAP*. Sword glowers with
fire. *ZACK*. He destroys the holographic image and projector showing
Prime's head.
In other comics, his sword appeared to cut through Transformers quite
easily (Blitzwing comes to mind).
So basically it's just a giant cutting wire (a cutting wire is a wire
that gets heated up by running an electrical current through it, and
which can be used to cut through plastics).
