In November last year I had to choose one of our children from the collective to send abroad on a journey I wasn't quite sure they'd return from... I even used a random number generator to select a delta because I didn't have the heart to do it myself.
The computer selected the robot "MING", so we packaged him in bubble wrap for the trip far away to TOKYO. He was exhibited there at the Fab Cafe Hackerspace as a finalist in their designed objects contest, the YouFab Awards! So cool! =] 
Sure enough... the little one returned safe and sound. Ming has more travel experience than mommy now!
