I Guess We Should Call it, "Rubio Goldbergisto"
New Scientist is carrying this summary of a very new sort of clothes iron:
A human-shaped dummy that irons shirts by pumping itself up with hot air has been created by researchers in Spain. It is the first machine designed for the home that can take on this tedious chore.
My gadget-crazy mom constantly accuses me of looking like I slept in my clothes. I expect to see one of these things on my doorstep any day now.
I think you look like an unmade bed most of the time. As soon as one of these things shows up on ebay I will have it delivered to your front door. Of course you will probably just put it in the walkin closet in your bedroom.
