We have had a couple discussions on this in the past week... Just for the cool factor though... Cause we are under weight right now.

It was a good idea until one of our brilliant seniors explained that the helium molecules were smaller than the little holes in our wheels...

Oh well...

Post Re: Top 10!

Not a top ten, but definitely a #1 conversation...

Concerned Students: "Matt, I don't think that the aluminum shaft will hold up, I mean, there's a lot of torque on that component."

Me: "Boys and girls, that's not just aluminum, that's AIRCRAFT grade aluminum."

Concerned Students: "Oh, well, if it's aircraft grade, then I guess it's okay..."

Me: "And if you every are worried about anythings else holding up, just let me know so I can make you feel better by telling you that it's aircraft grade, and that it's used on the space shuttles..."

Good luck everybody!

Matt

Re: Top 10!

"The good thing about standerdizing our bolt size this year is if you need a nut bolt or washer one is probley lying with in arm's reach."

Refering to finding tools "We could just tie one tool to each Freshman then tie them all to the crate so they can wander off." "7/16 get over here now."

"I hope to h*** that was comming from the other vehicle bay" Upon hearing a very loud rumbling comming from the direction of two vehicle bays one of which our robot is sitting alone in.

"We can give other teams freshmen to cheer for them in exchange for spare parts"

"F#@! You Office assistant!!" -Richard

"Why don't any of these box cutters have box cutters!?!!??"

"Find stuff on this list and put them in this box!"

"Why isn't the robot done yet?" -Me

"I never thought I'd say this, but I am SOOOOOO Sick of painting!!" -Me

From Aaron to me...
"How can you be exhausted when all you've done all day is paint the crate?"
"well lets see, when you factor in the getting b*tched at all day long, the fumes, and the stress..."

"Is it done YET!?" -Me

"Thank GOD it's the last day!!"

"I think I'm kinda Tired"

Brian said this when his mom told him she wouldn't take him home yet...
"She won't let me leave! She's holding me HOSTAGE!"

"Is it orange yet?... ooooOOOOoooo, it Is orange."

"Is tomorrow Thursday?"
"TODAY is Thursday"
" ... "

"We all need to go home, this is getting ridiculus..." -LeRoy
