Wetzel,

I think there is more to it than just CG, it something to do with their design - still no reason to use the PVC...

Do you know for a fact that Beatty can get on the platform? I believe that if Beatty does hang, it could possibly be from the carpet. If they hung from the carpet, they could then herd, hence their low rider robot.
