[color="#FFFF00"]Most of the "Detroit Needs A Statue of Robocop" donors shelled out $35 or less, but in such numbers, $25,000 quickly came through. Pete Hottelet, owner of Omni Consumer Products, stepped up with the matching contribution, which seems only appropriate. Sci-fi fans no doubt recognize the name as the corrupt corporation from the "RoboCop" movie, heartlessly building a cyborg from a felled officer and family man after its ED-209 enforcement droid proved too murderous.[/color]
Yeah, and Fred Barton, famed RobotMan of Hollywood is designing the statue.
