Probably a drowning liability. Schools are being rediculus these days but they have too to cover their backs.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

That's going a bit "overboard" don't you think. By this age, if you can't swim, your old enough to know that you can't swim, and don't, although I think it would be hard to drown in a pool that’s probably no deeper than 5ft. I think they should bring there bathing suits and enjoy the warmer weather. I'm one to follow the rules, don't get me wrong, but I’m also one to stand up and say to the people in charge, "That is one stupid rule". ) Ok, I’m done rambling.

Not-so-subliminal note: Bring your bathing suits and enjoy the pool. (unless you can't swim)

Disclaimer - I can't be held responsible for teenagers wanting to have a good time. (got to cover my butt too)

Waivers don't always work. Parents could always claim that they didn't know what they were signing and that they were being forced to sign it etc.

Re: Championship Who's staying where?

Bad news, no GameCube, my mom freaked out, so there goes that idea.

Can't wait till the Omni, could we see Baker there? Any other natural phanomenons, such as Dave Lavery?

I guess you're right. No one wants a lawsuit. Parents sue these people these people sue those guys and the parents lose to them all.


Also to the teams that are staying at the Hyatt I have found a really good site that tells you alot about the hotel. Even which floors have the best views of the city.

Well I have seen all of the other lists so who is compiling the team list at the omni. Its going to be a pain in the butt to do, but it would be nice to start figuring who's all going to be partying with 364.

lol, Broward county prides itself (we dont know why, we think its a bad thing...) on being the "third largest school distrcit in the country". I think there have been incidents mainly in Orlando of other schools in the county (and not robotics teams), getting injured in pools or whatnot. Broward County's so afriad of getting sued, that pretty much anytime there is a CHANCE of liability and injury, it's not allowed.

Prime example: We were testing out the new golf cart that our magnet coordinator bought on campus. Administration found out and almost had a heartattack, took the keys, and pretty much claimed the cart, yelling about the liability of a student driving a golf cart. Now we can't even take it up to competition. Keep in mind, those of us driving all have driver licenses. It's crazy around here.

ewww, that's not good. How long before these control freaks try to micromanage the robotics team because they're afraid of you kids getting hurt building the thing? I'd be worried.

They've done that before. You don't know how many times I've gotten the "YOU WANT TO USE POWER TOOLS!?" from administration. It's like "Did any of you take SHOP in high school??". I think its a downward trend of our society, everyone's so worried about liability and lawsuits we've lost sight of some of the real goals.

Okay, we're really off topic now. Anyone wanna discuss this further, my AIM name is of course SpecialAgentjim.
