Believability

Giraffes.

What is their purpose?

I don't know. I'm sure they serve some purpose in the ecosystem, I just don't know what it is and I refuse to google it.

What I do know about giraffes is they eat things that are high. Higher than most of us could ever dream on account of their really long necks. But what do you do when you're a baby giraffe?

According to the eye witness account of one Harvey the robot, a baby giraffe eats it's lunch because mommy giraffe pulls the high branches down low enough for baby to eat.

Do we trust the testimony of a robot? I think that sets a dangerous precedent. I'm not sure I'm ready to live in a world where robots tell us what they saw and we just accept it as fact, are you?

Here's those questions I promised you

The first question you have to ask yourself is, "Who IS Harvey the robot."

I mean who is he really? Does he have a family? Was he manufactured in the United States or China? Or Earth?!?

What makes him tick? Why does he tick? Can he not tick? The ticking is kind of annoying. It's like someone smacking their gum too much but you can't say anything about it because apparently the ticking is just something he does.

What exactly is Harvey's relationship with Melvin the cat? Seems to be mutually beneficial, but cats always get the better end of things and you would think a robot would be logical and emotionally detached enough to know better than getting involved with a cat, even one as cuddly looking as Melvin. Maybe it has something to do with Harvey's encounter with the lions at the zoo? Maybe Harvey just likes the idea of a lion, but prefers the robot to cat size ratio Melvin affords him?

There's a lot to know about ol' Harv. But that should be glaringly obvious by now.

Things to know about

What happened to Harvey the robot?

It's a great question. There's a lot to discuss before we get to that though. Namely the situation with the lion at the zoo.

There will be answers, I promise you that. Probably mostly a lot more questions though. But that's just typical Harvey the robot for you.
