Go to Post Polycord. It was used in all sorts of ball systems in 2009, and on some of the 2007 claws. It's not too hard to fuse together by hand with some heat and patience. - AustinSchuh [more]

Re: At Competition

For those who find nothing wrong with swearing at FIRST events, try slipping a few expletives into your Chairman's presentation and see the reaction you get. Then have the students use the same words in the classrooms they return to on Monday morning.

It's not simply a case of inappropriate words in places where women (*) and children might hear them. It's a case of using inappropriate words in inappropriate places. A quick slip in the heat of the moment is one thing, but if you can't string three sentences together without using a dozen swear words, you need to re-evaluate your speech patterns.

(*) - by the way, in a case that went all the way to the Michigan Supreme Court a few years ago, a law was invalidated regarding swearing in front of women. A guy was tipped out of his canoe and let out a string that could be heard half a mile away. He was brought up on charges, but eventually the conviction was overturned and the case dismissed because the law specified it applied in the presence of women.
