Great lines, Tom.  You ought to be stand-up comedian.

Now, THIS is the kind of subject that enhances the list, IMEO.

Why limit ourselves to predator/prey foodchain scenarios? I'm going to go
home and build a bot that attempts to pick up other bots with clever IR
lines:

25 = "So, you come here often?"
193 = "Is that a touch sensor, or are you just happy to see me?"
206 = "Nice legOS, bay-bee."

Depending on the 'prey', the wolfbot might even be lucky enough to get its
RCX number.
