Internet Connectivity?
Why is it that FIRST is not allowing internet connectivity to teams at any of the FIRST events?? This seems like a pretty random rule to me. Perhaps it is like the olympics and they don't want results leaking?? Or perhaps they are just worried that computer geeks will be on IM all day instead of walking around and being graciously professional?? Either way I'm a little preplexed but I'm sure FIRST has their reasons which I would be curious to understand.
