Jeff's Robots has lots of crazy robot images from comics, album covers, etc. [via boing boing].
“NAZI ROBOT EXPLOSIVE BEETLES EXAMINED BY NAVY MEN”? Whoa! (Also check out the Nazi WWII robot tank.)
Posted by jjwiseman at January 22, 2004 03:45 PMWhile watching the "Twilight Zone" marathon this past New Year's Eve I realized that back in the 50's they used to say Robot as "ROH-but" (emphasis on the first syllable and rather soft ending), rather than "ROH-BOT" (same emphasis on both syllables).
I think we should all start saying "ROH-but" from now on! Who's with me?!!?

I think we should show proper respect for the true inventors of robotics, and pronounce things properly! Let's all start calling them "ROH-bits"! Who's with me!?!?
