Re: pic: CurlingBots by Dave Lavery

Just to set the record straight:
- the three red robots appeared in the 2005 animation
- the blue tripod robot appeared in the 2005 animation
- the blue "long arm" robot in the bacl appeared in the 2004 and 2005 animation, but not in 2003 (the 2003 robot was a cousin of this one, but it was not the same)
- the short blue bulldozer robot was in the 2003, 2004 and 2005 animations (and who knows where he may appear next...)

So that means the score is:
Tom - 1/6 (only one was in the 2003 animation)
Billfred - 5/6 (it really bothers me that you know this stuff this well)
Ryan - 3/6 (points off for incorrect identification)
Alex - 0/6 (there is nothing generic about these little guys, they are all special in their own individual ways [at least, that is what my grandmother used to say, and I always believed her*])

I can't believe we are even having this discussion... Don't you all have something else to do??!
