Robotic Bartender

The Black Watch Bar in Los Gatos, California, is so popular that
they had a new robotic bartender installed. It was made in Santa Clara as an experiment by Intel. It could not only mix and serve drinks by voice command, but could carry on a conversation with the customer based on their IQ.

John Carter came in for a drink and the robot asked him,” What's your
IQ?”

John replied, “150.”

So the robot proceeded to make conversation about Quantum physics, string theory, atomic chemistry, and so. John listened intently and thought, “This is really cool.” So he decided to test the robot. He walked out the bar, turned around, and came back in for another drink.

Again, the robot asked him, “What's your IQ?”
John Carter responded, “100.”So the robot started talking about baseball, football, basketball, and so on.

John thought to himself, “Wow, this robot really is cool,” and went out and came back a third time.

As before, the robot asked him, “What's your IQ?”
The man replied, “50.”
The robot then said, “So you're gonna vote for Bush again?”
