I knew someone was going to do that when I wrote it. Of course I mean girls
too. I didn't say so because I haven't seen many. I would love to see more
females involved in robotics, I just don't see it happening. I won't say
girls SHOULD be involved, because frankly, we make that mistake all the time.
Dictating the behavior of an entire group through social pressure is always
wrong. But, if they are into it, they should be encouraged.
