Geeze, Don, you had to put it that way and give Luke that idea. What next, pushing our robot aside after it tips to climb the ramp?

Honestly, I didn't plan on it actually sticking. (It actually took me a few minutes to connect the dots after Kickoff went off the air.) Will they listen to me at all this year? Only one man on this forum knows--and we all know that getting game information from him is like trying to get blood from a turnip.

Although it seems that Dave mentions a name a month or three before Kickoff that might serve as a pointer to information--consider "purchase JVN's birthstone" before 2005's Kickoff (JVN's birthstone is amethyst, which is composed of lots of really tiny tetrahedrons), and "Whack the Billfred" before this year's.

(That little bit of knowledge comes only with 20/20 hindsight, enabling us to see Dave's posts without the red herrings, and a memory of ChiefDelphi threads that's probably not healthy.)
