Go to Post Force yourself now, today, to learn one new thing each day. When you lay down on your fluffy pillow at night, before you say your prayers, ask yourself if you have learned anything new. If the answer is "NO" then you better get up and find something. - Al Skierkiewicz [more]

No, it is just really cool how they lined up the metal and camera so that the reflection looks like the other side of the wheel. Very nice optical illusion!

How on earth did you get the aluminum that shiny? At first I thought I was seeing the other side of the wheel through a piece of polycarbonate. We're going for a brushed look this year, but that would be a nice trick to know how to do for future robots.
