[so... it's been sunny. Or well, much sunnier than last month so far. Cam, like most other reasonable people, has been appreciating this in the ways sie knows how to do so - namely, sitting outside in the sunset. Sie's found hirself a nice spot near the center of town, set up a picnic blanket, and taken a seat there with a few ( Read more... )

From what I have seen of you - which is admittedly little - you look quite hominid to me. That is, your form greatly resembles what I would consider a human shape. Of course, your internal biology might be entirely different, but externally there are many similarities. Is that true of many of the sapients from your home then? Can these different... peoples, as you say, interbreed? [Robert wonders if they might not be subspecies.]

Humans are part of the order known as primates - which are themselves part of the class referred to as mammals, an endothermic group of quadrupedal creatures, characterized by the presence of hair, mammary glands and three middle ear bones. [Robert pauses there.] While primates have other specific features - such as generally having five digits per limb, well-articulated shoulder joints and an emphasis on vision - I'm not sure how necessary it is for me to detail all of them...

But, at any rate, humans are one of the several sapient species of primate recognized on Terra. [Because other species, such as ( ... )

[Sie's not too far off, actually. Though a nanocomputer is more like the journals, honestly.]

One of these days, perhaps, I'll need to show it over the video feeds, or perhaps in person if you would prefer, Cameron.

-In person, Professor. I would much prefer to see something where I can touch it and experience it firsthand.

[Voice] semper_cogitans April 14 2011, 19:31:24 UTC

That can easily be arranged... And you are not the only person who has expressed interest, either. [Robert may very well have a fan club at this rate.]

[Voice] kissdiet April 14 2011, 20:43:15 UTC

Oh? Will you hold a lecture on the device then?

[Sie means this as a joke but.]

[Voice] semper_cogitans April 15 2011, 05:10:31 UTC

[Robert does not get jokes easily and so he takes this completely seriously.]

Well, certainly, if people would be interested in hearing. But I am not sure exactly what I would lecture on.

[Voice] kissdiet April 15 2011, 08:07:12 UTC

-Ah, Professor, that was a joke, actually. Though, if you were to give one, I can assure you I would attend.

[Voice] semper_cogitans April 15 2011, 16:46:10 UTC

Ah, my apologies... [And now he sounds a bit flustered.] W-Well, I'd certainly be happy to explain any questions you had to the best of my ability. Granted, I am not particularly apt at the hardware portion of nanocomputer technology, but I will do my best.

[Voice] kissdiet April 15 2011, 16:59:40 UTC

In any case, you certainly know more than much of the rest of us... or well, at least more than I do. I'm certain we can learn something.

[Voice] semper_cogitans April 15 2011, 18:10:11 UTC

I always welcome the opportunity to teach others, if I can. [Robert beams at Cameron through the little viewscreen.]

Perhaps I ought to schedule some sort of date for this...

[Voice] kissdiet April 15 2011, 21:29:21 UTC

When you do, please tell ahead of time so that I might make time to attend.
