Advanced Robots To Sell Wine — In Pa.

Recently, the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board — which, if you didn’t know, some people think should be abolished — announced it was seeking proposals for several hundred wine kiosks in Pennsylvania. The kiosks would be placed in (get this!) grocery stores and malls.

Yes, it’s a step forward, and a surprising one from the LCB. And check out this technology!

The kiosk has security identification measures such as fingerprints and biometric readings, he said. Users would have to register and purchases would have to be made with credit card, debit card or PLCB gift card.

Oh, boy, I can’t wait to have to register and get fingerprinted to buy wine. Sigh. One step forward, two steps back.
