where's this picture from?
Hey all, i know this year's game is about to be revealed, but i was just browsing FIRST's webpage and noticed the picture of the red and blue robot at the top of this page
http://www.usfirst.org/robotics/index.html
You can see yellow and black balls, so the picture had to be from the '00 competition or more recent, but i don't recognize the stuff to the right of the picture. Is all that stuff to the right simply part of the robot featured to the left? or (now here is where i'm pulling ideas out of left field) could that stuff to the right be part of this year's playing field, and the robot just be some prototype the FIRST people created to play with and test the game,
does anyone recognize that robot being in any past competition?
if so, then my guess is wrong, but if no one has seen that bot before, who knows.

"The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors, so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe .... In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. "
