The fear of the unknown is a basic human feeling, shared by most people. The fear mechanism is one of the most developed devices throughout our evolution. It's there to protect us from evildoers, from predators, from everything that strays from the ordinary, the routine, the repetitive.

It's the robots we read about in books, that we see in films.
