Scientific Progress (or game hint?)

Dave's other car is at it again...

I hear the Rover found water on Mars!!

Is this Dave's early game hint?? :ahh:

(Aside from the joke, this is AMAZING progress!)

And so, it begins again.

And I thought we could at least wait until the official game hint for more water game speculation...

Silly me.

Note that the story referenced above is from 2004.

The recent news regarding the verification of water ice in the arctic regions of Mars stems from the recent activities of the Phoenix lander (http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/phoenix/main/index.html), not the Mars Exploration Rovers (http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/mer/index.html)s (Spirit and Opportunity).

Which is not to say that the 2009 FRC game is not a water game. Or not.

What's that extra S there for? :ahh:

Please, for sanity's sake, call it a typo.

It's not too farfetched, considering that Dave probably just tried to type the s outside of the hyperlink, and accidentally put an s in the hyperlink, too.

Remember, summer is when we recover that precious little sanity we cling to. Or at least, we're supposed to.

Dave is your keyboard's S-key sticking again.... I remember this happening the year you tried to put closed captioning in the game animation

[Elgin Clock]

So, next year the game animation is going to ssstart sssounding like the sssnake from Disney'sss; The Jungle Book with the elongated S sssound in every word that has that sssound in it?
LOL

Let'sss hope not. :rolleyes:

When dave posts during the off season, we all become grammar curmudgeons

[Ian Curtis]

NASA spends $325,000,000 and accomplishes a major feat of science and engineering, yet all we can talk about is the number of "s"s in Dave's post?

I felt it was pretty anticlimactic. When they had the disappearing chunk of ice I think the "WE FOUND WATER!" ran its course, and got headlines, even though they hadn't actually found it chemically, just seen it. So, when they finally do get the proof, no one's really paying that much attention. In the days after it landed, Phoenix was on the front page, sometimes the second. Now its back on A6 or A7. :(

[Doctorwho]

Maybe we will have to use the new wi-fi based control system to navigate an obstacle course?

y'all just encouraging the evil genius that exist within Dave. Stop before you unleash the clown out of the box. Unless you really wanted to see a pencil trick.:D
