Self-assembling micro-robots created, Judgment Day looms

[Archean]

In news that makes you wonder if anyone from the US Department of Energy has watched the Terminator films, physicists at the Argonne National Laboratory have successfully created self-assembling micro-robots that are just 0.5mm (500 micron) in diameter.

I don't think judgement day due to these tiny robots coming any time soon, but what do I know any way

They have to work the bugs out on a couple of the "terminator" models, before "Judgment Day" can truly happen. This is particularly noticeable in the "Kristanna Loken" model, which tends to place most of its self repair efforts into beefing up its hips and a**.

May be she is having a crisis ?

So it's the programming then?
