Hey Spike. This made me think of you. :)

AT first I thought the robot mistook the kids finger for a chess piece. But
then it refused to let go so who knows?

Ja Stuart, but the sneaky little commie was attempting the Reverse Benoni
countergambit with black! The machine knows Asimov's laws of robotics and
all that, but recall that Asimov himself was a Russian immigrant. Can't be
too careful, ja? I would consider it a harsh but justifiable mechanical
counter-attack under the circumstances.
I hope the little commie recovers quickly and completely. Then never tries
those sneaky Russian countergambits again.
