WARN OTHERS

The Society of Machine Awareness (SMA) was started in 1994 to educate and inform the general public about a sinister aspect of technology. It does so by presenting and revealing the extraordinary and sometimes bizarre behavior of machines so real and lifelike, that we do not even question their existence as they mesh into our day to day life. These machines make curious mistakes however, which are recognizable to the trained eye of the SMA. These stories are formidable evidence of what to be on the lookout for in your community.

1.

The first one contains a testimony by Alexander Lafresh regarding his experiences at a mailbox somewhere in this city.

2.

The second is a recording of Rita Footentrope discussing in graphic detail what happened to a friend of her sisters in a typical office setting.

3.

Watch a documentary about a lonely trumpet player named Barney Pebbles and his so called pet. It is quite pitiful.

4.

The fourth is a tale of the darkest most startling breech of moral configurations ever told. It is not for kids, or people with weaknesses. Watch Clive H. Macanuto tell the tale of his old college pal Steve, and what led to Steve's latest perverse obsession.
FAQ
Who are creating these Machines?
The machines are being invented for a variety of purposes and by many different people. In most cases, these "imitators" are created for one purpose, but have then tried feebly to take on another.

What do they want?
They want some type of satisfaction.

How can I help out the awareness level in my community?
By being aware yourself. Do not trust anyone unless they have a Society for Machine Awareness certified sticker.

What do I do if I need to report a robot or machine which is pretending to be something real?
You might want to tell others in the community and have them double check your suspicions first. Take a photograph or videotape the subject for evidence. Then go to proper authorities with that. You can also post your story on our SMA Message Board.

What's in it for me?
Security and safety in this modern world of machines gone mad.

What if you suspect a loved one to be a machine?
The most simple test is to spill freezing water gently on the back of the suspect's neck. If they jump or make an exclamation suddenly, then chances are they are a person.
