That wouldn't work. Rookies from 2002 won't be getting the second box and they won't have any big balls as they haven't been used since 2001. Plus it really isn't fair since teams may have accidentally damaged or lost the old balls.

I still think it is the charger and/or the compressor and/or the joysticks as rookies and second year teams are the only teams getting them.

With current technology, a fuel cell capable of even matchign the output of the batts would be giamongous. It would be liek 80 pounds at least by itself. Then the hydrogen system? Cooling anyone? I would love to see what happens when bots collide with liquid hydrogen on board. lol

There's nothing in the box.

Think outside of it.

What are you referring to? Kickoff is a good 18 away. Perhaps the MER landing? Or the end of winter break? Or until there is only one week left?

Inflatable clowns??? Hmm.. fishy.. But I do recall a post by Dave mentioning a website that he "stumbled" upon during some "research" of some kind that had inflatable items available on it, with the oddest being inflatable army props (helicopters, jets, tanks)

Inflatable object(s) sounds like a good (fake?) lead from Dave!

(Note to self: Buy lots of snow-tube repair patches in bulk!!!)

I noticed those giant inflatable snowmen and Santas that eveyone seems to have on their lawns this christmas come in a box that is about 12" cubed

we'll find out in 2 weeks from................today! :c)

hey! wait a minute..

what size box does a hypercube come in?

[Jeff_Rice]

1ft by 1ft by 1ft by 1 second

[henryBsick]

Seriously now.

What if the first and second year teams must fit into the two 12" by 12" by 12" boxes as the new size regs.

Vets. must fit into one 12" x 12" x 12" to make it harder.

??????????

I think i have a hypothesis to the whole cube mystery...I propose that the cube is stuffed full of drill motors...and clutches....

Judging by the light boxes on the right, the other various boxes around, and the concrete floor, I'd say the picture was taken at an event.
