Re: Leaning against vertical bar

Because the manual DOES say that the Robot is considered hanging ONLY if it is DIRECTLY supported by the horizontal bar and because Dean did say something like, "Lets not interpret this like lawyers..." I should think that you cannot touch the vertical bars. However, if your bot is touching the vertical bar, but it could be supporting itself just fine without touchign the vertical bar then it should be legal because it isn't relying on the vertical pole to lift itself. Thats just my interpretation of the rule.
