The Future Is Now!

I know the books' themes of Asia, abundance, and automation, but I couldn't resist a link that Pink cites on his own blog that seems to merge these three forces into one event.
There is no way this idea could ever beat our school secretaries! Check out the story at http://search.japantimes.co.jp/mail/nb20070713a2.html

Hi Dave,
I looked at the website this morning. I wonder if this robotic receptionist/worker will be an answer to the limited workforce here as well. I think it is a great idea as long as we don't put them in the classroom. How do you think the robot might help us in the classroom?

P.S. I think I already have a meeting on the 21st for Every Day Math from 8:30 until 11:30, and I would really like to be part of our discussion.
