Careful, the goals are top-heavy and we all know what happens when things get too top-heavy!

Yeah, that's when they work great!

Somebody forgot to tell 271 that they don't have to supply a belay device - it comes with the field.

[npoe] I may not have a real caption, but I do have a way to make some people feel old! [/npoe]

I, Marissa Marincovich, am a college student and a legal adult. When this picture was taken, I was in fourth grade. FIRST was founded three years before I was born. Feel old yet?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #451

This picture was planned for use in the proposed planned book "FIRST Robot Building For Dummies".

Sadly for the publication planners (and happily for the rest of us), it was subsequently determined that there was no market for the book. The median IQ for FIRST participants greatly exceeded the "dummy" level.

It is alleged that efforts were then directed at "FIRST Game Design for Dummies". No word on the market for that proposal...
