  1. Clever, but where's the fun? I mean, the only thing they actually pick up is a clump of earth - hardly very exciting!

  2. For the "fun", catch a showing of "Eagle Eye" (premiered last night on HBO) and look for the escape/police chase scene where Monaghan and LaBeouf dodge their pursuers in a scrapyard where remote-controlled grapples similar to these are at work. The grapples make short work of clearing out the competition with some great action stunts.

  3. Reminded me of "War of the Worlds" {"Coulomb!"}
