MAN, MACHINE DEFEND DUTCH SHEEP...HEROES IN THE NIGHT HAS EXCLUSIVE FIRST PICTURE OF LAMB OF STEEL
Real Life Superheroes exist all over the world, and many have adapted the concept to fit into whatever needs they see in their own corner of the earth. Take for example the Iron Lamb of The Netherlands, a RLSH unique for two reasons:
1. The name refers to a collective of a remote controlled robot and the man who invented and operates it.
2. This man and machine's mission is to defend sheep.
The Iron Lamb machine was just recently completed, and Heroes in the Night was offered to debut the first photos of the invention here today.
The Iron Lamb origin story was also described by the man behind the project:
"It all started around May 2008. In the meadows around Zoetermeer, a brutal attack on a sheep took place. It wasn’t the first time- in 2006 a sheep was set on fire with gasoline, and in 2007 two 2-days old lambs were killed by hammer blows on the head. This the police found a sheep beheaded and hung at a tree. We don’t have animal cops (like in the U.S.) and the police had other priorities, so I decided to help out and began patrolling the meadows in civilian clothes, armed with a camera. The attacks occurred on weekends and in a small area so I thought I got a good change of catching a glimpse of the one that was behind this all.
Another attack took place in August 2009 while I was out of town. Don’t know if I could have caught in in the act if I was there or not, but a lamb was tied to a picnic table and was cut from head to groin. Autopsy on the poor creature revealed that it was done while the lamb was still alive. In May 2010 a guy was caught and confessed to the mutilation and killing of 2 sheep and 3 lambs. He was sentenced to 3 weeks of jail and a fine of 500 euros.
This sentence was based on the fact that he was booked for trespassing and property damage (the animals). Nothing was said about the cruelty of his crimes and the fact he had fun seeing those lambs suffering. Just property damage."
Iron Lamb says these events inspired him to become a protector of the sheep, but a couple of obstacles were in front of him.
First, there are mask-laws in the Netherlands so try to use a secret ID could give me problems. Second, the things are happening in the fields and if I would enter the fields, according to the Dutch laws I would be trespassing myself.
How would I do my “thing” and still act according to the laws of my country? Then I got an idea from a source most of us are using as an inspiration source. A comic book. I read the DC book, “Kingdom Come” wherein Batman is an broken old man. He doesn’t go out on patrols anymore but uses remote-controlled batdrones he controls from the Batcave.
I asked a hypothetical question to a friend of mine who works at a law-firm (not telling him about my plans) and learned that the use of a remote controlled device was a way to surpass my problem and was in the limit of the law.
Now with the idea of creating a remote control robot, there was now the thought process on what the creation would be.
One night I saw the first Iron Man movie. There was a scene wherein our armored hero protected a village from thugs invading it. He just jumped in and protected them against the evil that was done against them. I decided I would built an Iron Lamb. I have based the Iron Lamb on the gray armor Tony Stark used in his first 2 adventures.
I now patrol with the Iron Lamb at weekends. The iron lamb uses non-lethal weapons, has a camera and uses warning equipment to make a possible crime more visible for everyone living close to the meadows.
He uses a tool to do a job, and this makes him a superhero? One drives a car to accomplish goals, but is no superhero. Perhaps it is applicable to the attempt to stop crimes? A (telepresence) mask and an injustice needing personal attention?
ReplyDeleteWouldn't it be better if the Netherlanders (Dutch) in the areas affected, talk amongst themselves, and change the laws to have authorized police available to thwart these crimes? One man with a robot can only do so much. But a society of laws and justice can do so much more.
The crimes described are horrific and there should be no problem in finding public support to petition lawmakers(One believes - but no specific information on the crimes or locals).
-Lord Malignance
Lord Malignance,
ReplyDeleteI don't see any part of this plan that involves building a robot, though.
But seriously- perhaps these thoughts can co-exist. Maybe the Iron Lamb can show his creation to the Dutch at some sort of public city meeting. The reception might be so well that a public interest would drive creating a flock of Iron Lambs, acting as robot scarecrows. Building Iron Lambs-It would make a great after school program!
Of course, this being a Villain type solution to a problem, perhaps the criminals will create robot lamb killing machines? No, the best for a society are laws and communal activities to protect each other. Petition the government to make a change, gather your neighbors in peaceful protest. Fight within the system, unless the system will not do it's duty to serve the people. Do we know if Iron Lamb has pursued these options? Because the concern mentioned was that he could skirt around trespassing laws by remote control agents. Find out why people are doing these extreme acts, and fight the source of the problem.
ReplyDeleteBut that's just Villainous.
-Lord Malignance
OMG! This is an incredibly creative and ingenious solution to a terrible problem. Wow, that's over-the-top, but very cool.
ReplyDelete- Geist
is there a video of this iron lamb at work? if not, i call b/s.
ReplyDeleteLord M.
ReplyDeleteLet me first say that you approach this all with a lot of intelligence.
Thanks. You raise good issues I want to reply on here.
In my text send to mr. Krulos I never mentioned me as RLSH. Even if the Iron Lamb is inspired by superhero comics I am a man without superpowers and Iron Lamb can not be considered a hero.
I find the term X-alt a better representation of what I am doing.
Authorized policemen (especially for animal-welfare) was an hot topic for political parties in the elections that took place in the Netherlands.
More than 5 parties had it on their agenda for the future.
After the elections were done...no money for it.
The crimes as described in my story where in the news, people where shocked but forgot about it while time passed (only sheep, no humans killed etc.).
I tried to raise the issue in my civilian id as Biology teacher for kids with learning problems and as a volunteer for an animal-welcare organisation.
I saw myself talking to the walls of bureaucracy and decided to take action in another way.
Better to try to prefend more harm than to wait for the change to come.
Anonymous,
you call b/s on me? The same thing happened to me when I start posting in the RLSH communities forums.
2 years ago I told the forum-users that I would go build this thing and a minority of the users called b/s.
I decided to ignore the remarks and pursue my idea.
2 years later Iron Lamb is build.
At least those users had the decency to put their name where their mouth was and wrote their name under their posts. I feel sorry for you that you were afraid to do so as well.
Thank you all for your comments and greetings from the Netherlands,
Iron Lamb
Hey leave Iron Lamb alone yo! Cool deisngn IL. Im working on a cryo freeze gun atm. I have already completed my gassless jetpack. If your lambs use any type of gas or what have you, let me know.
ReplyDelete-The Brain-
Iron Lamb,
ReplyDeleteGreetings, and thank you for helping us understand the issues you face. One appreciates the outrage you must feel for the senseless killing of animals. One is also heartened that the good Dutch people have taken their concerns to the fair and just leaders, and that such a progressive democracy as your own saw fit to address the issues by passing laws to curtail the crimes.
The economies in both our countries limit what can be done it seems, and this issue will vex us all for years more to come. But the fight goes on. Awareness is a tool to your Iron Lamb as well as the work it does. Bring light to the darkness of the issue, and people will take notice and re-petition the government to find the monies to combat these crimes.
In my own country we find such criminal acts, the work of youth with too much time on their hands in the evening hours. More likely, the culprits are hooligan children that need their parents discipline. Can the community come together and discuss the issues of controlling wayward sons?
Thank you for your time (and One is amazed at your technical accomplishment - kudos to you sir!),
-Lord Malignance
I had a feeling that Iron Lamb had tried the political route and met nothing but reistnce or apathy. A comoon trait with most politicians these days - if it's not of even moderate significant importance or they get something in return then they ususually treat it as frivolous. Whether you call yourself a RLSH, X-Alt, costumed activists, concerned citizen, or whatever I think your actions are admirable and help clear some of the skepticism and unfair stereotypes that critics try to pin on folks like yourself. It sounds like no one wants to really stand up for the rights of those defenseless animals except for yourself. They may not be able to voice their appreciation for your efforts like a person would but it does not minimize the good you are doing for them. Kudos friend and keep up the good work/ingenuity.
ReplyDeleteI was one of the people giving him crap on the whole Iron Lamb project. I'll still call B.S. on this unless we get a video. I think it is just a model.
ReplyDeleteVictim
Victim,
ReplyDeleteI always showed respect to you on the forums, somehow you still think you need to make a stand against me. Sorry to see you don't want to become allies and exchange ideas that could help out those that are out there.
Actually it doesn't bother me that much, it only makes me stronger in the believe I have to walk this road alone.
I wish all the best for you and hope you will use your talents for constructive things in our little community.
Iron Lamb
In Victim’s defence, it is pretty hard to believe. You provided a picture of your Iron Lamb invention, yet the design is impractical. It has a high centre of gravity with a camera (?) on its right side. Since the legs are so close together and long, it is bound to fall over as soon as it moves and/or every five seconds. The mechanics and physics just don’t add up to your claims. On the topic of the legs, if it could actually work, then it would only work on solid concrete since it is designed to run at a stride. For going through a field, the legs would need to be much farther apart to handle the ever changing terrain.
ReplyDeleteNow, I can’t see how it is not a model. The camera off to the side is plastic (you can even see the line from the mold running down the front centre of it, a line which can be seen in most toys). There is not a lens, just a plastic bulge as can be seen with G.I. Joe accessories. Then there are the feet. A model of Iron Man would include circuitry, hoses, wires, and gears into the mold itself since they can’t obviously add in all of the components which make up a certain aspect of the model. For example, take a model car engine; it is one solid piece of plastic, not 100 mini pieces of an actual engine. It is simple. The feet of Iron Lamb are obviously plastic (not really practical; also, why not call it Plastic Lamb) and they have an odd design to them--as if there are hoses leading to boots (jet boots?)...basically, due to the placement and design they are just for show.
I don’t understand why you expect people to believe you blindly. I believe the Anonymous guy above Lord Malignance was being sardonic. A gasless jetpack and a freeze ray. Ya, sure...You say that Iron Lamb has a built in camera, and you obviously have a computer. You also know how to transfer pictures from your computer to Facebook; well, then why don’t you post your Iron Lamb in action on Facebook or YouTube? I think it’s because it’s one thing to create a model that looks like it does X, Y, and Z, and a whole other thing entirely to actually make it do X, Y, and Z, or even just X, just Y, or just Z.
I’ve seen Midnite Detective’s impact flash bang grenades in action, Artisteroi’s Blast Boot’s and K-9 robotic dog (a replica he built based off of K-9 from Dr. Who), The Eye’s strobe devices, Dark Wolf’s night vision visor, and Eon’s Powerisers and his armour as it progresses through the various stages of Project Eon--but nothing form Iron Lamb, nothing from the media in your area, nothing. From what I can see, and from common sense, the RLSH community really doesn’t need cosplayers or those who claim grandiose achievements. I’m surprised that the RLSV’s (Agent Beryllium in particular) rolled over without questioning the obvious fallacious aspects of simple mechanics, physics, and physiology of your “invention”. If you believe this, then why not believe that Master Legend is the Metatron or that Tothian is the Archangel Michael? For that matter, why question anyone who claims to have an extrasensory ability or superpower?
Not to be rude, but why does it seem as if Tea is reaching for stories as of late. There are a lot more deserving people and causes out there. It is odd that there are Heroes in the Night spotlights on those who have done nothing more then find a mask and pose.
Now, if you go out and patrol the fields by yourself, that is commendable. You are doing a service to your neighbours. You can be a “hero” to your community without pretending to be Tony Stark and flashing pictures of a mutilated Iron Man model in the form of a four legged “monstrosity”. The same can be said for someone who does good, without claiming to be able to fly or be an angel/demon/vampire/whatever. Just be yourself, and leave the toys out of it.

ReplyDeleteHello J.B.
ReplyDeleteLet me just be kind to show to you that some of your observations aren't quite right (no problem because you just used a picture of it to examine it).
The thing you describe as a fake camera is actually a liquid shooter that shoots a poop smelling liquid just to identify a subject a bit faster.
The ever changing environment is being handled by the use of quick-silver connections in the circuitry. If the quicksilver in the ampuls move to one side a motor in the opposite leg will compensate to prefend falling.
Because the legs are so close together the speed of the lamb is not what i had in mind for it. I am still working on this but for now the mark1 version is ready.
About the design of the legs and the strange tubes on it. Actually they are just for show. I liked the design and used it. I see no problem in this cause I never claimed the lamb had jet boots.
There are some plastic components in the lamb but they are hardened in a special way so that those pieces aren't heavy but still are very strong (they can stand a kick).
I will not try to tell people what they have to think about the Iron Lamb. Everyone is free to make his own choses. If you don't believe the story, well I actually have no problem with that.
I saw that K-9 doggy from Artisteroi, cool to make a model and put it on top of a RC-car but to say it was a real invention. if you want to use that thingy as an example for how a real thing has to be built? Probably better not.
Calling me a cos-player is not very nice but if you think I am, so be it.
Consider this, if this is only a model why did it took me almost 2 years to built it? check my first entry in the RLSH community:
http://earth-agents.editboard.com/t229-the-invincible-iron-lamb
2 years to build a model that does nothing, hmmm.
Using examples of so called "heroes" that lack creadibility is not an argument that can be used to say that the Iron Lamb is fake.
The Dutch media hasn't notice me yet. And quite frankly I am glad about that. I only go on the english facebook and forums for that purpose. I don't want to get overrun in the fields by people wanting to get a glimps of the Iron lamb.
About me wanting to play myself off as a hero.
I am considered kind of a hero by some in my civilian identity. I work as a teacher with mentally disabled kids trying to make them ready to get a job. It is a very cool job.
I don't play games as a superhero dressed in a cape etc. The lamb was designed to operate according to the laws of my country and to help out the animals I can't help out in my civilian identity. Nothing more nothing less.
Take care,
Iron Lamb
BTW sorry for my late reply.
ReplyDeleteI am not someone checking again and again if someone reacts on an article about me. Gloryfication is not what a RLSH or X-alt must seek in my eyes.
Last night I was notified about your post by a friend. Now i could react on it.
Greetings,
Iron Lamb
I really don't think observations are lacking in integrity.
ReplyDeleteAs for the fake camera, whether or not it is a camera or a squirt gun, the argument still remains. It still has a high centre of gravity compared to the surface area covered by the limbs, which you are admitting to. The limbs are constructed in a fixed linear direction. This is rather obtuse if you want to use it in a field or an outside terrain. Look at where the limbs are affixed to the belly of the "robot," there are absolutely no rotary joints. So, the machine can only walk in a straight line? Again, what's the use? "If the quicksilver in the ampuls move to one side a motor in the opposite leg will compensate to prefend falling." Seriously? Without rotary joints, no amount of altering the location of the weight will cause the machine not to fall if it is walking in a fix unswervingly direction. I mean…the damn thing is not only top heavy, but "the shooter" on the right completely offsets the devices equilibrium.
An example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b2bExqhhWRI
About the design of the legs, what are they made of, metal or plastic? Where exactly did you find limbs of that size with that sort of design on them? I am at a loss for words, since you are saying, "they are just for show" and "I liked the design and used it." I can only ask why you would forgo practicality for flamboyancy. I also did not say that your machine had jet boots; I was saying that the fake tubes incorporated into the moulding of the limbs resemble a toy which is trying to give the representation of jet boots.
As for Artisteroi's K-9 unit: he did create a working machine which basically resembles yours. It is a model that has to be remote controlled. He bought all of the parts, and put it together for himself. It was not a ship as-is model and it was not a toy that he put atop an RC chassis; he made it all by hand. Why are you acting like I only used him as an example? What of the rest?
As for your time line, it is pretty lame, and is something that a lot of fakes use as "evidence." You say, "Consider this, if this is only a model why did it took me almost 2 years to built it. check my first entry in the RLSH community:" Yes, on Tuesday August 25, 2009 at 2:44 pm you did make a post on The Earth Agents Forum…and? How do we know that you have been building anything for two years? Just because you say so? Are we in the movie The Invention of Lying? Are you incapable of dishonesty? Countering your "argument": you say, "2 years to build a model that does nothing, hmmm." Okay, well you have this "machine," yet you have only posted two photos of it in its completed form. Everyone else, who has created something, has shown numerous pictures leading up to the completion. The components, an up to date photo of where you are in the building process, even a picture of your work station. Yet, you have posted zilch. As for those final photos, there is not a size comparison. You can say, "Oh, well you can see the background, so obviously it is large;" well, I have a girlfriend who is going to university to become a director. Video and image effects are fairy simplistic to create. Why not stand next to it? Why not add a video of it moving?

"Using examples of so called 'heroes' that lack creadibility is not an argument that can be used to say that the Iron Lamb is fake." Which heroes are fakes? The one's listed were: Artisteroi, Dark Wolf, E0n, The Eye, and Midnite Detective…all of which are legitimate RLSHers:
ReplyDeleteArtisteroi is a member of Team Justice (probably the most reportable RLSH team, next to the NYI), is a global moderator on therlsh.net, was in the Team Justice documentary, was in the Superheroes documentary, is a member of the registry, and has been featured a few times on the news. He has been making numerous gadgets, showing their various stages, which can be looked up on therlsh.net.
Dark Wolf was a member of The Alternates & Pacific Protectorate, is a global moderator on therlsh.net, was in the Superheroes documentary, is a member of the registry, was a part of the French photo shoot, has a Heroes in the Night article, and he and his girlfriend currently have an article about them in Flux magazine. He has been making numerous gadgets, showing their various stages, which can be looked up on his Facebook page.
E0n was a member of The Pacific Protectorate, is a global moderator on therlsh.net, was in the Superheroes Documentary, is a member of the registry, was a part of the French photo shoot, and has been featured a few times on the news. He has been planning and working on Project E0n which can be looked up on his Facebook page and therlsh.net.
The Eye was one of the earliest of the RLSH, is a member of the registry, was a part of the French photo shoot, had his own spot on Revision3, and has been featured a numerous times on the news. He has been making numerous gadgets, showing their various stages, which can be looked up on his Facebook or MySpace page.
Midnite Detective is fairly new, but he records his patrols and has been making numerous gadgets, showing their various stages, which can be looked up on his Facebook page.
(((The reason why I brought up the moderator status is due to the fact that a person has to be fairly well known and documented to become a moderator or administrator for therlsh.net.)))
As for you, you have been a part of forums, talking about your gadgets, and never showing them. All of the people which I have named are not "so-called heroes;" they all have press, videos, awards, etc as proof of their exploits. Nice try though.
The Dutch media hasn't noticed you yet because there is nothing to notice, and I really could care less what your occupation is. It has no bearing upon this discussion of the legitamacy of "The Iron Lamb" or you being an RLSHer. If you want to bring occupation into it, over half of the RLSH are either in the medical field (EMTs, nurses, and doctors), cops, in the military, firemen, etc.
"I don't play games as a superhero dressed in a cape etc. The lamb was designed to operate according to the laws of my country and to help out the animals I can't help out in my civilian identity. Nothing more nothing less." What do you mean by playing games? So Zero and Zimmer are just playing games? Let me get this straight, instead of helping out the less fortunate, you are sending out this "machine" that has zero manoeuvrability, but which can shoot a stinky liquid at an animal? The machine is operated by you, who will be walking a short distance behind it. Okay, so, a wolf is suppose to walk in front of the machine, stand there for a few seconds whilst you spray it with the mace type liquid, and then he will run away? Hmmmm…wolves attack in a pack. They typically only prey upon diseased, injured, or weak animals; only in a state of desperation, with no less-healthy options around, would they go after a perfectly healthy animal. They run them down until they are tired, circle them, and then close in. So, are you yourself wearing any protective gear? Since, obviously, you know absolutely nothing about wild animals.
--J.B. Osborne
Hello J.B.,
ReplyDeleteFrom the pictures you can't say how the weight is divided. That is happening in the big body.
There also is rotary, ...in the body.
You now even try to acccuse me of telling that the heroes that you name in your reaction are fake. You sir should reread my post. That is not the point the guys you name I have a lot of respect for because I consider them legimate ones. Why you want to lay words in my mouth is a mystery. I didn't was impressed by the K9 robot but that doesn't say I have disrespect for it's owner.
Another example of you changing what I wrote in a warped sense is the fact you think I will shot at an animal. In my area there is no problem of wolfs but of people trying to hurt innocent animals in the field.
three reasons why I won't reply to you anymore:
1. I don't have time for a longtime argument with you (a reason I left the forums for now)
2.You try to make me look like a hero-basher and an animal-hurter.
3. You think I am lying about everyting I write, what is the point of arguing with you any longer. You have made your mind up about me.
And I don't feel the need to proof myself to you anymore because what I will tell you, you will not believe me and start all over again arguing.
I wish you the best but will now stop the communication with you, J.B.
Iron Lamb
Rotary joints are on the limbs, what use are they in the body? Do you even know what a rotary joint is? It allows two components to interlock and rotate on their axis, just like how the wrist allows movement between the hand and forearm. Again, The Iron Lamb limbs are affixed to the body, thus only able to move in a linear direction. The knee joints are also affixed in a foreword state, thus linear direction. You obviously no nothing of robotic physiology or basic physics. You are saying that it is true that the limbs are designed to move in a linear direction, yet you have some kind of mechanism in the body which dictates direction, correct? Okay…so if you take out the steering component of a car, thus allowing all of the wheels to drive completely straight, do you think any kind of mechanism could alter the car's path which doesn't significantly cause instability? No. again, any direction type motor you have in the belly would cause the damn thing to fall over…but, what am I saying, it is just a model anyway.
ReplyDeleteYou said, "You now even try to acccuse me of telling that the heroes that you name in your reaction are fake. You sir should reread my post." I did, you said, "Using examples of so called "heroes" that lack creadibility is not an argument that can be used to say that the Iron Lamb is fake." Let's walk through this, shall we:
Using examples (giving you comparisons to other inventions which have been made)
of so called "heroes" (so called "heroes" implies fake heroes, cosplayers, or newbies)
that lack creadibility (that have zero evidence to back their claims)
is not an argument that can be used to say that the Iron Lamb is fake
"That is not the point the guys you name I have a lot of respect for because I consider them legimate ones." Hmm, then why did you call them so-called "heroes" who lack credibility?
The Iron Lamb would only work against animals…let's say for arguments sake that Iron Lamb is real (Tony Stark backed it, right?), well…the argument still holds. In reiteration: The machine is operated by you, who will be walking a short distance behind it. Okay, so, a guy is suppose to walk in front of the machine, stand there for a few seconds whilst you spray him with the mace type liquid, and then he will run away? Hmmmm…it may be an undercover officer, the guy who owns the property, or any number of things…even a guy asking for directions. If you were to find yourself by a lamb killer, then what? He will kick the machine over, and kill you. Again, are you yourself wearing any protective gear? You obviously know absolutely nothing about criminology, delinquency, or psychology if you expect this machine to work.
"1. I don't have time for a longtime argument with you (a reason I left the forums for now)"
Yes, you do this a lot I'm told. Anytime someone debates with you about the legitimacy of The Iron Lamb or Iron Rat projects, you turn and run.
To Be Continued...
"2.You try to make me look like a hero-basher and an animal-hurter."
ReplyDeletePlease, tell me what I'm missing when you call other RLSH "so called heroes" and how they "lack credibility." They were your words, when it comes to the hero bashing, I did not twist a thing Master Legend. As for the animal hunter part, again, this type of concept would only be applicable to squash wolves or other predators that attack and prey on the lambs. A human would just knock it over and beat you. Also, I don't know if this has been touched on, but have you permission to be on these farmers' lands? Or are you just going from farm to farm, spraying "poo" smelling liquid at people? The only way you would know that a human is there to harm a lamb is to see them harm a lamb. Then what, will you pick up the lamb, run over to the guy, set the lamb down, aim the squirt gun at him, and then squirt him? -k-, then what stops him from beating the ever loving shite out of you? I have seen guys power through and beat up security guards after being maced.
"3. You think I am lying about everyting I write, what is the point of arguing with you any longer. You have made your mind up about me."
Come on. First off, you are just writing, that is it. Writing is not proof; if it were then our professors would not have made us include work cited pages in our reports in secondary school. If you want, I will show you around one million sites with proof that The Loch Ness Monster is real, that people are able to fly, that alien's probed numerous southern hillbilly American's, etc. Is the Weekly World News legitimate, due to the fact that it is a printed newspaper which is sold at markets? No! Secondly, my mind would have been made up if you were to show at least a little bit knowledge pertaining to machinery and/or physics. Your concept of anatomy and physiology is warped, but…who knows, maybe it would have worked. To prove your point, all you had to do was show a video, or more pictures, or what have you. The last time this happened to you on the forum, you left for a year or more, and then you came back with two-three photos as proof. This is not proof when you supposedly already completed the machine at the time in which you left. What's next? Are you to leave for another year or two and come back with two-three more photos as concrete proof?
"And I don't feel the need to proof myself to you anymore because what I will tell you, you will not believe me and start all over again arguing."
Here we go; all I can say is look at Master Legend. You cannot claim the extraordinary, and then tell people that your word is proof enough. You have not given any proof except two close-up images, and that's it. You agreed to be in a Heroes in the Night article, which would inevitably open yourself up to critics. All you're doing now is backtracking. One would think that you would use your amazing electrical and mechanical knowledge to plant me dead in my tracks...but no, you are just running away.
I'm so happy to see you AGAIN running away when it comes to your credibility. Why not say, "Hey, I will take a few photos for you tonight. Hell, I'll even show a video of The Iron Lamb in action to put all controversy at rest"? Alas, nothing.
--J.B. Osborne
Let it be know that I am not running away from anything, I just have better things to do (read: filming a trailer for my mini-documentary) than arguing with people I don't know.
ReplyDeleteJust stay tuned to learn the truth...
Mini-documentary of what...Iron Lamb? You can't get any media attention, so you're making your own media opportunity? Also, if you are so strong in your convictions, then why not at least try to convince me? I know if I made a robot, I would fight tooth and nail against naysayers. On the other hand, I understand; it’s hard to fight to make a person believe in something that doesn’t exist. If I was trying to convince people of something extraordinary (like how I can fly), then I would take a the easy way out like you (not showing a video of Iron Lamb in action, due to being “to busy”) and Master Legend. With every response, you are doing nothing but hurting your case.
