Re: An Inspirational(?) Story

After attending the Peachtree regional in 2006, and watching M'Aiken Magic in person, and hearing the Engineering Inspiration presentation, I knew 1102 was a role model team. 1102 deserves this Chairman's Award, and are a class-act organization.
That being said, I'd like to add an element of irony. 1002, the reason you decided submit at Palmetto instead of Peachtree, actually didn't submit at Peachtree in 2007. They submitted at VCU (where they also won the Engineering Inspiration award, and 612 won Chairman's). Seeing as it worked in Palmetto anyway, it didn't hurt you in the end. But it's still an ironic and amusing tid-bit.
As for the operator/presenter scenario, I know I can (and probably many others) relate. My human play and myself had to dash from the field (not even taking the robot off of it or listening to the score) to the presentation room in VCU after a match. It was certainly an exciting experience.
