296 practices placing the Olympic rings into place. Too bad they weren't called on to actually do it in Vancouver.

Team member 1: Our robot is four meters tall and weighs 120 pounds.
Onlooker 1: How are you going to fit it in the crate?
Team member 2: Er, um, uh... Uh oh. I think we confused our units again.
Team member 1: Yeah, didn't the manual say the maximum height was four feet for our weight class?
Team member 2: Eh, it's not that big of a deal. If NASA can mix up units, then so can we.
