 I think a lifetime of learning properly and then teaching others and inspiring the youth is more important to myself at least than being on the news for a couple seconds during a voice over.

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
that sucks, i know how you feel...
our robot was also stolen 2 years ago, it sucked major. we had the news cover our story but we never got our robot in the end. but on the bright side, we did give F.I.R.S.T. a lot of TV time -Avinesh- -Team 1778-

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
If only you had the new system in the bot and the bot was on...you could set up a control station in the back of someones car and drive around town....then you could use the live video feed when you were within range to find out where the bot was
 lol, good luck finding your bot though

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
Man that's really a low blow.
I would have thought that with all the sensors you guys put on those 'bots, that one of them would have been a GPS, so you could keep track of it. I hope that you can get it back, since it is part of your team's history. Paul

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
That's really too bad that someone stole your robots. On the plus side, at least it wasn't the 2009 robot the day before ship... But it's awful losing any robot. I hope you get it back.

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
UPDATE! Robot found. Well, pieces of robot anyway. I haven't seen what is left of it. I got a call from the police this afternoon that they had spotted it (it is great to live in a small town!) but the guy wouldn't open his door.
 So I dispatched a couple of mentors with a truck to accompany the officer to pick it up. Apparently it had been stripped, but they gathered up what they could. The poor robot had quite an adventure, I'm sure!

Re: Bomb Squad Calls 911
"Lost Robot Found" sounds like something that happened to us: Our school had a team in 93 & 94 (before there were team numbers), and then folded. We restarted in 2002 as Team 811, with virtually no history other than pictures in the yearbook. Around 2004 one of the local community colleges contacted one of our mentors and said, "Yeah, we've got a robot with your name on it, do you want it or should we just throw it out?" It was Paragon, our '94 robot, in pretty good shape for having been apparently buried for 10 years. No clue why the college had it, or where it was for the decade.
Hopefully your robot will be at least quasi-salvageable.

Will you be able to post pictures of what is left (after you are able to see it), I'm interested to see what they took (yes I know that's a weird request, but I'm wondering why he didn't scrap the whole thing).
