PsychoPhil is an unknown quantity at this point
here you go...

Okay, here's a copy of part of the email that woodie sent me:

I hope the folks in #885 are looking forward to a wonderful Summer!

"Unfortunately I never write speeches. I try to have a map in my head representing what I plan to say -- then just do my best to say it in an understandable way.

As I remember my comments in Florida, ---- approximately ---

I feel proud but have a confession -- FIRST Robotics Competition is not about robotics -- its about things, ideas, and people -- the robot is simply the object about which we gather -- somewhat like a tribe around a campfire -- the robot serves as a focus for the much more important things that happen --- then I talked about the diversity and excellence FIRST folks show in each of the three categories.

I hope that helps."

Okay, do much about that, Phil
