Woodie's Game Hint @ Atlanta

I also would not recommend shipping the gerbils with the robot.

There are special instructions for shipping the batteries - I don't see why there can't be special instructions for shipping gerbils. Maybe you'll have to include air holes with a gore-tex liner so the gerbils don't get wet but can still breathe, and design a time-release feeder so your gerbils don't get fat in storage. For those teams in climates with extreme weather (hot or cold) you'll have to make a rig to cool or warm your gerbils.

I hope FIRST lets us know soon if Gerbils will be included so we can get to work on these life support systems...

Maybe game is just shipping the gerbils to Atlanta. Whichever team gets the gerbils there in the best condition wins.

Of course I not sure what the bot would be for then

Hmm...Im sure that would cause A LOT of commotion with the humaine services.
Not sure FIRST wants that kind of attention..

Your post has me thinking of the "The Trouble with Tribbles" episode on the original Star Trek.
