Eaagh! Von Neumann machines! The humanity is doomed! DOOOOOMED, I tell you!

Well, after actually reading that, perhaps not just yet. When they can create replicas from a plank of plastic and some copper wires, we should start worrying. When they can create replicas from powdered plastic and copper ore, we should really start worrying. When they can mine their own ore, then we are doomed.
