This world is just plain f*cked up.<br><br>We don't even have safe transportation. Millions die in car crashes.<br><br>You could just be walking in a park one day and a piece of aircraft can fall on you and kill you.<br><br>Someone could kill you just because you have a different skin color. As if you chose to look a certain way when you were born.<br><br><br><br>There are so many problems in this world that it wouldn't make common sense to focus on one thing--curing cancer. Yes, it is important, but there are many ways one can die in this world.<br><br>You might as well substitute "cure for cancer" in your statement with "gun control", "cure for aids", "world peace", or any number of random things.<br><br><br>Why not make a 100% safe transportation system? That would save many, many lives. Why not get rid of all guns in this country? That might save a few lives.<br><br>Even ROBOTS will save lives one day. They will be put to practical use and help the world.<br><br>So if you care only about the cure for cancer, then pick up a biology book and start trying to solve the problem. That is the way this world works. 99% of the people out there are going to wake up and go to work everyday and have fun in their spare time. Then one day, they will die.<br><br>If you want, this problem is unsolved and out there for you to conquer. You can do it. It doesn't take millions of dollars of research. I believe that most things can be done with pencil and paper, and experimentation, and not too much else. I believe in you.<br><br><br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[zoopthegame]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 6th 2008 1:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Oki's robot chair heralds a new age of robot-aided seating]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yeah because nobody is trying to find a cure of cancer or aids.

I've never found being held in someone's arms to be very comfortable. There's all kinds of pressure points and hand slipping, and the occasional falling to the ground and landing on your "bum"... Plus then there's the issue of being a straight guy, and the associated difficulty in finding anyone willing and able to hold you in their arms, whom you'd actually want to be held guy-- er, held by. OK, you know what? This topic is raising a whole lot of issues for me, and I'd really rather not talk about it!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[gad get]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 6th 2008 1:31AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Oki's robot chair heralds a new age of robot-aided seating]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow you sound a bit self conscious.<br><br>Hiding something?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[James]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 6th 2008 1:56AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Oki's robot chair heralds a new age of robot-aided seating]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</guid><description><![CDATA[My god, is that the leg from a terminator robot?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Dillon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 6th 2008 4:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Oki's robot chair heralds a new age of robot-aided seating]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/11/05/okis-robot-chair-heralds-a-new-age-of-robot-aided-seating/</guid><description><![CDATA[Yes.
