add that one to the list of jobs I would not
ever apply for. Although I
do have experience - with my own feet, after a heavy workout...

Naut, I rest my case.
Madeline Albrecht of Cincinnati, Ohio knew she was set for greatness when she was hired by the Hill Top Research Laboratories, a testing lab for Dr. Scholl's.
Her job was to sniff feet and armpits and that she did for a smelly 15 years.
During her aromatic career Madeline Albrecht sniffed an estimated 5,600 feet and an unknown amount of armpits.
And that, our friends, is the stinkin' truth.

Maybe they can finally give the job of sniffing armpits to robots instead of humans having to do it.

Well, thank you Naut...
I'll be on the look out for those! You're so fun to talk to! I like your straight forwardness! Plus you've got a sense of humor to boot!

I'm waiting for a robot who can mow the lawn, take out the garbage, wash the car, sit here at the computer and do my work, go to boring meetings - all that kind of stuff...
Thanks for your comments on my PC post. Since you found that interesting, I'm gonna give you the links for the other two posts as well. I'll put them on your blog...

Naut...it's the mucous that binds us, huh?
...smelling robots...talking robots...working robots...what ever will they come up with next?
Thanks for referring me to your PC post from 2006. I read it and all the comments left for you from everyone. Lensman is one of my all-time favorite bloggers. I miss him VERY much. I partiuclarly his response, as well as, Sly's.
There's a time and a place for PC'ness. As PC pertains to race, ethnicity, socioeconomic background, etc., I believe being PC is important. When I here non-PC labels (nigger, honkey, wet back, bastard, etc.,) I feel the person using such labels is projecting nothing more than anger or hostility.
However, when a person is consistently PC in terms of talking about where he or she stands on personal issues and personal truths I get a little lost in the conversation, because there's a whole lot of PC'ness out there that is elusive and evasive.

Re: OH, PLEASE! ROBOT SNOT? AND HOW MUCH IS THIS RESEARCH COSTING?
muser, don't know about the cost, but there may be pay-offs! Being able to distinguish good wine from plonk might help a few people, and there is also the growing bomb-sniffing business...

I hate typos, but I always make a lot because I am hasty and impatient. And then I push the button without having checked things! So you can be my proof reader!
And I sent the letter about 1/2 hour ago. By email, not by carrier pigeon, so it should be there by now...

I know you appreciate typos as I do. Nasty vermin. I'm having trouble with email. When did you send it? I wrote you a couple, did you get them?
I'll tell you a story about proof reading sometime. I'm the best!
