One robot is in Santa Barbara, California and the other is in La Jolla in San Diego, California at a park somewhere. If you type in the chat box, the robot will say the chat out load.

I can't donate because paypal.me is not available in my country (I wasn't going to donate much, but maybe others were).

This reminds me of Burger King's subservientchicken.com, except theirs was prerecorded video. This is way cooler.
