Guido now makes $10,000,000 a year building robot player replacements for the NBA. See if you ever make fun of another colorblind person again! HA!

The funny thing is that we DO have a mentor we nicknamed Guido - Well, actually he gave himself that nickname, but it still is funny.
It would be even more funny if he were a mentor on the programming team, and not the mechanical team.

Also, the funny thing about that day, was that we did this at a D.A.R.E. day event, and the kids enjoyed it this sight so much, the 4 cops that were standing in the vicinity, and also watching from a distance, had grins on their faces. I was expecting them to yell at us, but they were cool about it.
