  Mar 5 2013: Great point Will,
  So you are going with selection point (2). And from what I have read, many of the Robot operative options have been successful choices.
  Thanks

• A comment on Conversation: Is there any way to prevent religious debates from turning into a big fight?

  Feb 21 2013: Hi John,
  I can't help but to agree with you on this. My little children picked up on this as they observed and were disappointed and expressed it as well. If it happened God saw it as well.
  Best

  Feb 20 2013: Thanks for asking. I would say, no based on years of observing incidents in the Church and Seminary forums.

  A reply on Conversation: What are the Statistics on Humanoids in the operating room?

  Feb 20 2013: Dictionary.com defines a "humanoid" as "having human characteristics or form; resembling human beings. Humanoids could be Robots with human form. Would you agree?

• A comment on Conversation: Can donor funding really fix African challenges, or should we empower African communities to address their own challenges?

  Feb 20 2013: Greetings Harare,
  I agree say that we need to empower African communities to address their own challenges. This has been my goal since moving to Memphis,TN. I was raised in predominantly Caucasian social environments; Church, school, community events and so on. When I attempted to educate African American communities in Memphis on the fact that we need to better understand ourselves to better understand others socially, i became an outcast. I was told that I had the "White woman mentality and needed to move on out!"
  Yes, what you want is very possible, but the learners got to catch on and take the initiative to know, grow and succeed at committing to the cause. If its hard where you are, it got to be easy here. but people do not get it.
  God bless and thank you
  Nandi

  Feb 18 2013: Hi Mr. Turner,
  Thanks for sharing. I will continue my research. I have heard the same, but I started with Robotics in the early 90s whereas these types of machines were big in the automotive industry and highly recommended for the surgical field as well.

  Feb 18 2013: Hi Mr. Lockwood,
  I apologize, if I am somewhat off on the definition of "Humanoids". Perhaps I need to review and respond to your post again. There is a difference between the two. Thank you for your reply.

  Feb 17 2013: Great presentation Mrs Pierson
  I have questions. Perhaps you have ideas about them.
  Are Robots working in the operating room?
  If so why?
  What would you prefer?
  (1) A Human being that is certified in the health related field of your condition?
  (2) A Robot that is programmed to respond to your condition as promptly, efficiently and effectively as it possibly can to save your life?
  A. Is it ethical to incorporate “Robot/Humanoid” in the Surgical room?
  B. Just how effective are these Robots/Humanoids?
  C. What types of programs are they running on?
  D. Who will operate on the Robot Ops to regain their complete functionality?
  E. How many pilot runs does it take to perfect a program operation?
  F. Are doctors approving the programs that direct the decisions of the Robots?
