Gog has since evolved WAY beyond what he was doing in robots rising, he is
now equipped with 2 arms and can play with slinkies and such. Very fun to
watch him. He has learned suck things as sharing (I think they talked about
that in robots rising too) but I believe BEAM is a few Million Nu's and Nv's
short of what cog can do.
