Re: FIRST Injuries

If you follow enough precautions, FIRST is a pretty safe environment. The closest I ever got to anything dangerous was shorting (and killing) one of our batteries whilst trying to charge it. This year we've ordered APC connections to graft on to our battery chargers. That should put an end to the danger.

I also cut myself on a twist-off cap on a bottle of sparkling cider at a 294 end-of-build celebration...
