To the Editor:
If you are seeking a new concern to add to your list of frets or if you have grown bored lying awake at night worrying about the Jersey Devil going on a spending spree with your credit card, then the following illustration may offer fresh distress.
Imagine yourself an unmarried woman with a fully functioning mind. It is Friday night. You are ringing the bell outside your girlfriend’s home. She opens the door.

You smile as you tilt slightly forward, releasing a “hello.”
In reply, he, speaking in a smooth alluring voice proceeds to bestow on your person several compliments, all possibly true. When he finishes, your girlfriend asks, “How do you like my new robot?” Mildly laughing, you answer, “Very impressive.”

Here at this moment, is where new technology-based worry arises. The fear is that the flawless charming robot will lead you to establish an unrealistic code of suitor conduct. Consequently, you spend the rest of your life searching in vain for a “Mr. Wires” who has become in human form, the new Mr. Right.
