Wrong again. Please see this post and this post. <sigh> We all need to spend a little less time kvetching about the shortcomings of the FIRST organization, slow responses of the companies that donate parts to teams so we don't have to pay even more for the Kit of Parts, the poor performance of the Dow-Jones under the Bush administration, and how the universe in general is a bad place to park a mobile home. If we spend a little more time focusing on helping each other figure out how to build competitive robots, we will all be a little bit better off.
