Jason M quote...
<<(I assume those who know us may have trouble believing that Eric and myself could have been wrong...>>
Actually I suspect they have known all along that at least one of us (I'll actually cop to this) is usually wrong :-)

I am RELIEVED that we don't have to face this issue.

But in the process of building a strong frame to handle impacts coupled with a kinda cool drive train we may have a fairly nasty "bad" robot. (ie Slammer)

the team has talked about it. Its not something we are planning on using first but I think we will respond to violence with violence. And that really saddens me. Pushing, shoving , all cool. But at the speeds teams are talking about 130 pounds is just a whole lot of KE to deal with (for the physics challenged Kinetic Energy.. 1/2 M V ^ 2, M is Mass V is velocity)
I hope we look back on this season as the one we worried about but it all worked out OK. remeber how we kept changing our minds about last years Game? I know I started by hating it and grew to really really like it. But hey I use to bowl.

As soon as we get some more parts bolted to the bot we'll post some pic's

Hope every one is still having fun.
Jason what regional are you at? San Jose or Seattle or??

Later
Eric
