No, it's not the liquid metal robot from Terminator 2--but this droid can certainly build itself to perform a particular task, melt itself down and recycle itself.

LONDON (AP) The public will be able to greet the dawn of the millennium's 1st summer at the ancient stone circle of Stonehenge, the first time in 16 years the site has been opened for the summer solstice. Stonehenge will be opened the night of June 20 for eight hours under tight security. Camping, fires, dogs and amplified music will be forbidden at the site on Salisbury Plain, 80 miles southwest of London. In the past, Stonehenge - a stone circle erected by prehistoric Brits 5000 years ago - has been a magnet for unruly revelers. During the 1980s, a 4- mile exclusion zone was established around the stones on solstice night following a series of disruptions. In 1998, 100 people were allowed to attend the solstice by prior arrangement, but riot police had to be called in last year after gatecrashers pushed down fences and clambered on the stones. http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2566440192-240 : What's your favorite pagan festival?
