"Robot vacuum cleaner 'attacks' South Korea housewife's hair"

 
She was still unable to free herself from the vacuum and made a "desperate rescue request" call to 119, South Korea's emergency telephone number.

Robotic vacuum cleaners are equipped with sensors allowing them to clean surfaces by detecting dirt while avoiding obstacles such as stairs, people and cables - but not, seemingly, human hair that is still attached.

The Neato is highly recommended by some folks I know who are very clean and picky. Available thru Lem's amazon portal.

There's a car that I see on a regular basis.

It has a decal on it.

She must be an interesting person, to say the least.

Maybe she got it through the LemPortal.

I think we need to keep an eye on those robots. Give them a head of hair and they'll take your soul.
