DARPA grand challenge
So Stanford won the DARPA grand challenge a few minutes ago. I think that's awesome, for a few reasons. 1) Joe helped contribute to the making of the vehicle (or making the vehicle autonomous); 2) this is a big step toward not having to drive on road trips but instead enjoy the drive that your car takes you on; 3) Joe and I made a bet which involved the loser giving the winner the most romantic day (I bet that someone would finish the race this year). So if you want, you can help Mr. not-so-romantic out with ideas :P
