| "I know that Kim Stanley Robinson wrote of autonomous robots in his Mars trilogy books (Red, Green, and Blue Mars). Not only did they mine for raw materials, dig holes on Mars so deep that the heat from the core was brought to the surface via massive windtunnels, and even mining asteroids hollow before human occupiers got there, they also wrote of air miners which were basically giant robotic air turbines that sucked the oxygen, water, and other useful gases out of the atmosphere."

| "I'll go find some quotes if I can... What mistakes?" (Bill Christensen 10/19/2007 7:16:50 PM) |
