Soon :oshea: may replace his coke bottles with flat "octo eye" glasses, and see with the same clarity as his specimens do :cyclops: Cephkid Dec 8th, 2004, 03:34pm True...but, as a 13 year-old, I have an excuse to-figuratively-say "yeah, yeah, but a ROBOTIC OCTO!!!" :lol: I love bein a 13 year old. :P Then again, even this is an extremely impressive advancement. cthulhu77 Dec 8th, 2004, 03:34pm What a cool development...I can hardly wait for the binoculars to come out!!! greg Jean Dec 9th, 2004, 08:40pm True...but, as a 13 year-old, I have an excuse to-figuratively-say "yeah, yeah, but a ROBOTIC OCTO!!!" :lol: I love bein a 13 year old. :P Then again, even this is an extremely impressive advancement. Well CK I'm not 13 and haven't been for 2 or 3 years :heee: :roll: But I think a robotic octo would be cool too! The red octi on my office window ledge is battery operated and can creep across the floor (sort of :D ) AND maybe I could get octo lens transplants and dump my contacts :D :D :D J cthulhu77 Dec 9th, 2004, 08:50pm Would you have the horizontally slit pupils though? That would be REALLY cool!!!! Jean Dec 9th, 2004, 08:51pm Would you have the horizontally slit pupils though? That would be REALLY cool!!!! But of course!

No, there are no lights, but the glow from my eyes should give you enough to see the descending stairs by..."
