<p>People will adjust, but claiming it will be 'inexpensive' is a little nuts.</p>

<p>The infrastructure that supports our civilisation has been built over century's, having to rebuild it will not be cheap. Ask your self, are the new New Orleans flood defences 'inexpensive'? are the Mississippi flood control schemes sized to cope with future floods, or will they need to be expanded? and if so will that be 'inexpensive'? Will the irrigation systems used by farmers continue to supply water if there is a drought? If it dosn't will the higher food prices be 'inexpensive' to adjust to?</p>

It's probably just a respin of China's Red Flag linux distro (Which i think is derived from redhat).

I'm not sure the 'androids' are really androids, i think they might be vortiguants: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vortigaunt The leg structure looks similar.
