I caution you not to be so emotiocentric. If we are to believe Lou Reed that "Love is Chemical," then all bets are off. After all, Dr. Reed has several degrees and I quote, "I have a B.A. in dope. And a Ph.D. in soul." Sounds qualified to me.

So instead of bashing our synthomechanical brethern, I propose we begin modeling neurochemical receptors with our arduinos and become a force for excellence.

PS - Yes, I did make up the words emotiocentric and synthomechanical.

    Pressure, strain  and temperature sensors can easily be added and
    the robot can be programmed to avoid situations that overstimulate
    those sensors. Classic definition of pain.
