The American company iRobot (which makes the Roomba robotic vacuum cleaner) is suing the Canadian firm Urus (which make the Koolvac) for alleged patent infringement. Instead of settling this in court like big sissies, why don't they take it to the mat? Here's my proposal: Six months from today, they hold a "BattleBot" (a.k.a. Robot Wars) event. Each company develops a violent mini-robot based on its vacuum-cleaner platform. On the appointed day, the robots go at it in a cage. Whoever loses admits defeat and the whole thing is settled.
