Actually, I just learned this today in AP Calc class! Surprising how things come up.

3) Did you notice that the NI FIRST Community site came up yesterday at 5PM? I actually Googled "2009 FIRST Control System" yesterday at 10 PM and it came up. I basked in my newfound knowledge, but decided not to post and steal FIRST's thunder. I guess it didn't matter, someone else found out in the middle of the night.

Did anyone notice that one of the abilities of the cRio was inter-robot communication. FINALLY! This could make for some VERY interesting challenges the next couple of years.
