I'm gunna get a little bit weird here, but ....

Was watching a doco on robots last night and an interesting point was made. We humans are attracted to any machine that looks, no matter how obscurely, like a face ... that is, maybe some eyes and a mouth and eyebrows.

I've always thought the F27 had a "bit of a face about it" ... albeit, perhaps a dog's. Maybe that's why we are attracted to some aircraft (eg F27) and not others (eg A380)??

Anyway, got to go now ... or I'll be late for my therapy appointment!
