The video for Special Cases by Massive Attack, which I just watched through the iTunes store, prominently features pin-transfer robots in it, and high-throughput screening plates, the sorts of things I (very indirectly) work with at ICCB. (Hence my HTS::Plate Perl modules, heh.) I thought that was kind of neat.

I say "?" at the video other than that novelty, though; it seems like it's supposed to carry a message payload, but, er, huh?

Also I have been playing Gran Turismo in writing breaks, playing the grunt-grunt vroom-vroom games to offset the inherent girliness of the fru-fru dancey games, but it doesn't help, because it's rather an affront to my manhood when the same two farking sportscars nonchalantly flick my gnattish little Daihastu out of the way at the finish line, five times in a row. Blah.
