The more I think about this, the more annoyed I get. For example, how do they pass genes? IFF they needed to model a physical phenomena (such as fluid dynamics) that would be in effect 'free' with a physical model but soak their cpus, then fine, use physical objects. But for those toy thingies? Frankly, makes you question other aspects of their approach ..
(btw: got a good chuckle seeing c++ and mySql on the bookshelf ;)
