Geocache Description:


In the movie Bicentennial Man, Robin Williams plays a robot who dreams of being human. The large distinctive buildings close to the cache coordinates are used as the futuristic headquarters of the company that created the robot, NorthAm Robotics.

In the original Bicentennial Man book by Asimov, the robot manufacturer was named U.S. Robotics and Mechanical Men.

Around 1971, a new modem-manufacturing company took the name U.S. Robotics, partly to honor Asimov. However, because the robot manufacturing company is not portrayed positively in the movie, the real-world company asked the filmmakers to use a different name. Hence, NorthAm Robotics.

Remember the movie scene, and you'll know where to go.

The cache is a mini M&M's container, and is strapped in place. Please don't remove the cache, just pop open the lid and remove the log.
