Robot lawnmower kills Danish man, begins resistance

From Engadget.com:

In what is surely the opening salvo of the robot insurrection, a 45-year old Danish municipal worker was tragically killed by a robotic industrial lawnmower this afternoon, after the unit tumbled off a slope and onto his head. Although we've seen quite a few robotic lawnmowers, we're not too familiar with the RC-controlled Dvorak Spider 01 unit the man was using, so we can't tell if the accident was simply user error or something far more insidious, like, say, the dawning of a new intelligence determined to enslave all humanity. Either way, we're glad we live in a city and not the deadly robot battlefields known as "the suburbs."

Holy shit. We might be moving into the next stage before we know it!!
