robotsrule writes "The European Comission (Europa) is holding a public event to bring the public, especially young people, closer to the museums, laboratories and academic institutions that are doing high level research in Europe. 'European Researchers' Night' will offer several fun events such as science cafes, behind-the-scenes open house evenings at several research facilities, an X-ray laser demonstration, films, dinners, and more. The star guest of the evening is Honda's ASIMO humanoid robot. The event is scheduled for September 23, 2005 and will be held in Brussels, Belgium."

There was a pause in her conversation when she asked the audience for a particular dance for Asimo, and I responded with the first one that came to mind... the robot!
Apparently, it does the cha-cha, the salsa, and a number of others, but it doesn't do the robot...
Whodda thought?
