Re: "Compressed Air" vs. "High Pressure Blower"

As long as FIRST doesn't pretend that a ducted fan is a traction device,1 I'm happy. (In all seriousness, the distinction between accumulating pressure and blowing air seems to be a good, practical one.)

1 I'm not making that up. In 2009, a fan thrusting the robot downward was allegedly a traction device. That was ridiculous.
