Let's all stop being lawyers... When we design these systems ask " would I want my Mom (or daughter) standing next to this thing when it goes off?".
FIRST dosn't need be concerned with what an engineer can or can not design safely, but what students can safely design. Teams have alot of different ways of design, from engineers and students working side by side, engineers watching and pointing things out, to no engineer support, to totaly engineer designed.

Nice play on the GP saying.
