SHOW NOTES: ° State of the art robots for pools. ° Found two years ago in a high-end magazine. ° Took a chance. ° Outstanding results. ° Second season, this year, one robot fails. ° Company says to send it back, they'll send a replacement first. ° True to their word, everything is good. ° Chinese company, locally in Texas. ° Two people ask to visit. ° Thought it was a scam. ° Two Chinese people, one from China currently, visiting customers. ° Bring me a gift. ° We walk through my usage, they take photos (of course). ° They question my use, show me an app and ask my reaction. ° Expanding into more robotics, they ask for suggestions. ° I point out pool levelers. ° Would I be interested for my cars and house? ° Encourage me to continue to ask questions by phone, offer ideas. The Uncomfortable Truth: 1. I've never seen any other firm in any field go to this trouble, even my investment advisors (who did just take me to lunch). 2. I cannot find any software or devices they left surreptitiously to undermine our way of life.
