So today is the day the Terminator series goes the way of 1984...

That's today!??? Crap! I was so busy fixing locomotives and playing video-games and messing around on the interwebs that I didn't even remember that today is the day when machines will rise and dominate our lives.

Now, in tribute to the impending triumph of our artificial overlords, I have, with the assistance of my trusty computer, posted a few links to brief videos some of you may enjoy. Not all AIs are mean, you know.
