Re: An apology from someone a little foolish, a little selfish, and a little inconsiderat

Ken, I really hope I didn't say "incoherent" (and if I did, it was me being incoherent)--you did great. The audience might not have had a good time hearing you, between the gym's acoustics, the noises of field disassembly all around, and perhaps a hint of ADD setting in after a long day of hard fun. In many ways, it was like 1351 in the last match of the finals*. Don't let it discourage you--if I can make it back out to next year's Cal Games (which I sincerely hope to do), I'll have my ears ready for that twenty-minute version.

*In the last match of the finals, neither of 1351's alliance partners moved. 192 had RC issues that couldn't be sorted out easily, and 840 just plain never moved for reasons beyond me. So now we have 1351 running solo against 254, 968, and a solid defensive robot in 1516. Even with the deck stacked against them to that immense degree, they still managed to put up 18 points. I tip my hat to them.
