I mean, Lewis Black is either genuinely irritated or potentially the greatest actor of all time.

I remember pretty much the moment when I gave up any pretenses of being religious. I was Catholic and they gave us this teen bible, and there was a section on homosexuality. It basically said that being gay is wrong so you should pretend you aren't and eventually it will go away. I'm not even gay but I thought: this shit is retarded. Then I started learning about science and that made it even more obvious.

Interesting that ATCs forced retirement is at 56, considering airline pilots forced retirement age is 65.

It seems like you're making a pretty incredible claim. To have a robot capable if replacing a doctor wouldn't you need the following:

1. An AI comparable to the human mind.

2. Considering that doctors perform surgery with their hands and eyes, a robot capable of "feeling" and "seeing" and interacting with the environment in a way that allows them to gather information as complex and nuanced as a human.

Both requirements seem like they are far, far more advanced than anything I've heard of.
