Yep I do. You think it took less than a year to make that thing? O.o

HOWEVER, I still don't understand the choice. A spider, really? Did they steal that from Wild Wild West? LOL

OKAY. Did some rummaging around, and it seems I was looking at a different spider mech. This is what I was looking at last year: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJmXGviY02A

There, everything is solved. I coulda swore I heard something about Japan's mechs tho. Hm...Ah well.

I also now know why spiders are a good choice, stability. THERE. Happy? I'm only human. I can make mistakes. They looked similar.

HEY LOOK I ADMITTED TO A MISTAKE! :o *slinks away now to go sleep for reals*

Speaking of mechs, the US army is working on Mech suits. ^_^

The US is building a mech but not using Hydraulics. They are using a memory fiber that works a lot like real muscle. (This is why it's taking us awhile). It's a bipedal mech. If I can find the brochure I'll provide the website for it. It's pretty cool. Not sure how far along they are. Last time I sat in a panel they were trying to get the balancing down because at that point in time, a 20 mile an hour gust of wind would knock it down lol.

they'll probably have to correct it to to have a slightly lower than normal center of gravity (for bipedal anyways) to compensate, unless they have on of those crazy Japanese super computers that has the self balancing algorithm in it. @___@ crazy complicated.
