In my column last week, we asked, “Do you think I am being an alarmist about RPAs?"

28.6 percent of respondents answered, "Yes," and 71.4 percent answered, "No."

We then asked, "Is your company actively discussing what the future will be like with RPAs?"

42.9 percent said, "No," the same percentage said, "I am not allowed to say," while 14.3 percent refused to answer the question entirely.

We had a pair of other comments on this:

>You might find this interesting: Easyjet develops flying robots to inspect aircraft: http://eandt.theiet.org/news/2014/may/easy-jet-uav.cfm

>Saw a RPA operating near a paper mill expansion project recently.

There is no quiz this week.
