Old picture of Chris Anderson.
Had to go back to the cnet post to realize it was a PREVIEW of robot stuff at MF posted last Friday, and the 2 year-old picture of Chris was intentional. Chris was both at our GeekDad booth and his own DIYDrones section of the Maker Shed this year to great popularity.

And sorry, didn't mean that as any kind of criticism, just was befuddled for a moment when I saw the pic. Viva la Make!
