--------------------------
I hope that I don't hear anything else about the safety glasses issue because it is so simple it is stupid. You wear them when working in machine shops at your schools or businesses, when using tools, and when you are buiding the robot durring the build period... why wouldn't you wear then when working on the robot at a competition? Even if you are not working on YOUR robot... the people near you are.

Heck... FIRST has a seperate heading in the manual about it. "12.1 Safety Glasses - They do no good on foreheads."

also... under "16.10 Courtesies and Rules" it most definately states that ALL teams ARE REQUIRED to WEAR *AND* PROVIDE safety glasses for both themselves AND their guests. And ALL members and onlooks MUST wear them in the Pits.

The Safety Glasses they decided to lend on Friday were for VIP's and non-team related visitors so they could see the robots... and they were to be returned... sadly i do not believe many were. That is why they were not lending them on Saturday.

And.... If everyone just wore their safety glasses in the pits we (the volunteers) wouldn't have had to be evil about it.
--------------------------

On a less evil note:

I do agree about the Bosch Motors and Gearboxes... The large pile of Broken/Damaged Parts by the end of Saturday was astounding. We had a pretty cool Pyramid of Bosch motors going. Not as much Field lint as Annapolis though.

The Competition in Philly was amazing like usual. Carol, Louisa, and the Whole crew of FIRST people, Drexel people, and the other Volunteers deserve a great round of applause for getting everything set-up, run, and broken down.
