The link is an article about a meat-eating robot at USF. Feed it slabs • of
beef, and e-coli in the "stomach" convert the meat into electricity to
power the robot. They talk about the potential for lawnmowers that eat • the
clippings. Sounds like I should just get a cow instead...

One thing just hit me (I don't know if this is the right phrase to use in
sentence), when the cow eat there is some stuff that it can't process and
it comes out the "natural" way, I wonder if the robot really consumes
everything of that it eats...
