Sorry about that. Your archive-fu is better than mine. But why would a robot order coffee?

For his human colleagues, of course!
Interestingly coffee spider is listed as 'Gary' by Jeph, not as 'Gordon'. So, unless Jeph just forgot the character's name, they are probably two different spiders. Yes, ladies, that means there are two giant robot spiders that like physical contact in Northampton! :-o

Probably Jeph had a moment of confusion, due to the Gary Phenomenon. But you may be right, Gordon and Gary might be identical twins. If so, is it Gordon or Gary we see in today's strip?

Or some AI version of Dissociative identity disorder. If GaryGordon's hardware has multiple processors, I guess each processor can be assigned to a separate AI entity? Shared memory and files, as well as shared sensors and actuators, may of course create conflicts.
