Once she was done with it, that battery stuck to the lexan like glue!

The biggest problem we had was getting Fluffy away from Miss Daisy's pit to take care of the batteries. She has this strange thing about Daisies... She doesn't talk much, either...

It would seem that Fluffy has a pretty electric personality then. Although looking at the picture, keeping Fluffy on the team shouldn't be a problem, it would seem that you need to come up with some way to corral her (him?) to be available when needed.

You might say we get a charge out of her.

Pete I already had the fans spinning on the speed controllers. I don't think that making the electrons go through the wires could be too hard .
