Post Re: FIRST release/injury form

I don't see why the topic shouldn't be brought up. FIRST history is just like real history: know it or repeat the mistakes made by those before you. In the case of safety, I believe this is very important. I've heard of one incident in which a student (edit: got seriously injured) from being dropped in a mosh pit at a regional social. I think this sort of thing is a (edit:needless occurance) and that everyone in FIRST would not like any more accidents like it to happen again.

As for my team, the most serious of our injuries have been students cutting themselves on our bandsaw (not seriously) and mentors' fingers getting hit with hammers by student learning how to nail. ;p

Sorry about the misinformation, I misunderstood what I heard before. Thanks for the correction Dave.
