I heard a crazy rumor that 159 is building a Segway... out of the EDURobo kit! Can it be done?

If it can be done with LEGO mindstorms I don't see why it cannot be done with the EDU robot kit.
Here is the link to the lego implementation:

Ohhh... it's coming along splendidly, too. Right now, we have to get an old gyro from a guy's house who stole them. We'd use the new one, but we haven't gotten our connector yet. Pictures on my next post.

update on 159's...
All our old gyros are either on robots or broken, and leader won't let us use 2003's. We will probably end up cannibalizing an old one, but maybe after we ship, when there is more time. Congrats hammond! That is pretty cool, but forgive me if I don't quite buy that that segway actually knocked those down.
