    that's fun. i like it when mega corporations do something frivolous. restores my faith in humanity in a very sick little way.

    ...or if you are driving around aimlessly for too long, it suggests that you stop and ask for directions.

    A new vehicle called "the pod", developed by Japan's Toyota Motor Corp and electronics giant Sony Corp, will smile, frown and cry, not to mention take your pulse and measure your sweat. The car is seen in an undated handout photo. It has been designed to show emotion and learn from driver experience and will be on display for the first time at the Tokyo Motor Show that begins next week. REUTERS/Toyota/Handout

    Not if a guy designed it. It's against the Guy's Code to stop and ask for directions. You know that!!!

    I know. But from some of the other "suggestions" ("slow down!" "stop driving like that!") that this car seems to offer, it sort of seems like it might nag about getting directions, too.

    I wonder if it turns on the windshield washer fluid when it "cries"?

    I wonder if it sometimes will start sputtering along and ask you if you really love it.

    Why don't we get someone to write a epinions article on it and shoot it at the range. Wouldn't take but a few rounds to destroy that car either.

    Maybe after you give it a full tank of gas, it'll ask "Does this paint make me look fat?"
