Re: Petition to end things that confuse the public
After starting this thread, I've realized a few things:
  • The goofy songs are highly valued by many in our program
  • We don't have a clear and consistent focus on anything that confuses the public
  • Rather than changing our program for the sake of the public's understanding, we need to work harder to educate the public about what we do

Those points said, I think I've gained all I was looking to get from this discussion. I'm fine with letting this thread fall into oblivion. Now, let's get back to our cleanup work on those handful of events where yelling "Robot!" is still a thing.
