Yes, I have been wondering if FIRST thought at all about the environmental impact of suddenly making thousands of existing perfectly good batteries obsolete overnight. I suppose they are good for practice and use in previous years robots for demos and such but I still think this was possibly the most environmentally UNfriendly move FIRST has ever made. What a waste. Folks if you don't want, need, or have a good use for your old (now obsolete) batteries from previous years PLEASE consider either finding a new useful home for them or at least properly recycle them.
