    Robot Baby Programmed to Cuddle
    Phil Hazlewood



    July 30, 2008 -- David McGoran cradles his baby in his arms. As he looks down into its big, dark eyes, it turns its head towards him and blinks, looking contented as it curls a bony white finger around his hand.

    But the "baby" is not human. And it looks more like the evil Gollum from "The Lord Of The Rings" movies except in a hemp romper suit with cloth ears than a gurgly infant.

    It reminds me of one of those old rag dolls you might find in your grandmother's attic.

    If it has an off switch it's more appealing than a real baby.
