:) you're probably talking to a bot xx

The word "robot" was first coined by a Czech author. Before, they would have been known as "automatons". ☺

:) Yes, good point, and I happen to know about it since I was born in (Czech-o-)Slovakia. But then again, you don't need to be born there to know about it...

If you'd like to know the etymology of the word - 'robota' in Czech and Slovak means 'work', therefore 'robot' is a thing that works. It's funny how I haven't really thought about it until now though... :)

You some how survived the Velvet Revolution to make it to today. That took courage and determination!
