Go to Post So we are able to run a very competitive and active robotics program. Sustainability, alas, is a month-to-month issue for us and is dictated by the space situation. This is okay today. Tomorrow could be different. We live like this. - Clem1640 [more]

We had about 8 teams on our list of who we wanted as partners (both 93 and 107 were on that list) and being number 8 meant we really needed about 16. Knowing both our picks would probably be gone by the time it got to us I told our student representative (who is also our lead animator) to accept if anyone picked us. Well, the team seeded just ahead of us picked us, but 93 and 107 were still available so I tried to get a last minute signal out to decline.
Yeah, we were the team you declined, but it's really not that big of a deal. We took it "graciously" .

Re: Who likes the Thunderchickens?

I Love the Thunder chickens ,and this is why. The people on there team, Paul, Bill, Mike .........., there robot are always something I enjoy and study every year .The shirts are cool too, but the main reason goes back to the people that make up that team from students and engineers to bill that works making parts for every other team .We had the pleasure of playing with them at the Midwest regional and at that regional it is hard to win. And after the disappointment went away I realized although I knew of the Thunder chickens I didn’t truly know them. From their students who cheered for our team when we were not even playing with them ,to Bill who is always fun to talk to and Paul who has more enthusiasm than most people know. I feel like a winner because after that weekend I consider them not just our partners, I consider them as friends .

Also if Paul reads this I hope to see you and the thunder chickens at the IRI along with the” annexation of Puerto rico “ I think if anyone can do it, you will.

Your friend
