ok that's done... it still drifts, but now it drifts less.
(instead of every 4-7 times changing by 1, it happens every 15 or so...)

Thanks for making FIRST such a great experience for me. I'm no longer on 1351, and I'm not currently planning to mentor team 97, but FIRST has meant so much in getting me to where I am now, in life and at MIT, class of 2011.
I met Billfred! He recognized me!
