Re: "Quotes" that were said during build season

While building the plywood prototype (mmm...plywood....) I was in charge of putting it all together, while the others on drive base built the connectors for the wheels.

Me: *crazed look* JUSTIN!?!? What do all good teams with casters do?

Justin: I don't know, what?

Me: MOTORIZE THEM!!!!!

Justin: Wee!

We proceeded to think of ways to motorize the ball bearings in the caster.

From the prototype stages our team came up with a simple saying

"The robot should be allowed to boing"

We have a mentor who, unknown to him, we have affectionately nicknamed Gordon Freeman, because he resembles ol gordon, especially with his orange jacket. (his name is actually tom...)

J and Me: We need to build the robot out of something then aluminum...how about completely out of wood...

Tom: That would be (something that the swear filter takes out), or maybe steampunk...

Me: Ooooo.....copper tubing.......
