Browsing around, I found another link regarding Mark Tilden & WowWee. From the website "AllNerdReview.com" (if that doesn't describe a roboticist...) comes article about a their visit to the New York Toy Fair (ok, so my web-browsing is a bit old). Enjoy... http://www.allnerdreview.com/TOYFAIR05/TF13.htm
Closed on Monday August 6th

That's it. We've had enough. The weather is just too darn nice outside. So nice, in fact, that we quit. That's right, when Monday rolls around no one is even going to bother coming into the office. You heard us - we'll be closed on Monday, August the 6th. Go ahead and email and leave phone messages and place orders. We won't even be here. We'll be out there, where it's nice and sunny and warm. Bam. That's it. We're done. No more Solarbotics.

Wait, what's that? You say that August the 6th is "Heritage Day"? Which happens to be a provincial holiday, no less? Uh, okay. In that case, we'll probably get our warm and sunny outdoor fix in the form of a long weekend. That's probably enough time off that we'll feel like un-quitting, so I guess we'll even be back to work on Tuesday. Have a good long temporary-quitting weekend, everyone!
