Re: OSHA, Safety and event volumes
Something which has not yet been mentioned is effects of music volume on the drive team etc. If you believe the music is loud in stands try standing in team queuing less than 10ft from the speakers. During Friday and Saturday I wear ear plug with 36db noise reduction (remember this means 36 orders of magnitude less) and still found the sound to be painfully loud. My team mates and I were shocked to find our pant legs oscillating several inches with the music due to the massive pressure changes.
For everyone who says talk to the AV people--they often will not listen or have unreasonable expectations of peoples hearing (or lack thereof). Unlike many teenagers I greatly value my hearing--this shouldn't mean that I can not drive the robot.
