the Darth Vader of farming

So I occasionally do Google searches on Olin just to see what people are saying about us, and I came across this article which appears to be based almost entirely on the feature that was in Popular Science, with little or no additional research. So, no breaking news here, but I like their ominous description of our SCOPE project:

"What happens when Robotics and Agriculture decide to go out, get drunk, and spend a romantic night together? You get the Darth Vader of farming: The Robot Tractor. No orchard is safe form [sic] the Robot Tractor's pre-programed [sic] authoritarian automatic spraying."

"Other projects included such oddities as the student-built Model Solar-Powered House."

Huh? ;)
