I dont think you have to pay him....but he'd gladly accept the money..

I'm guessing that it is allowed - last year, our robot's entire exterior was diamond plate.

If we broke the rules, the judges must have been blind...how do you not see shiny silver diamond plate?

I was waiting for somebody to ask this. The truth is, we don't ahve much interesting yet. I could post a pic of an 8020 frame, LOTS of CAD drawings, and other schematics, but thats about all we have right now. Drawings for interesting stuff go to machinist tomorrow.

My teaser involves the multi-position cyclinders and this picture. Can't say though.

Note, the most important thing in that picture isn't the shiney metal or diamond plate, but the tinkertoys in the background.

Lavery [dances] around the NASA [robots]

There are so many though. There are actually 21 teams who get more help than just money (meaning they have NASA engineers), but there are countless others that just get monetary support. However, it would be very enjoyable watching him dance around any robots.

Just so everyone knows, he turned down an offer of 14 dozen Krispy Kremes to do a jig on the NASA channel during Spirit's landing. Dave turned down 168 Krispy Kremes, just to do a little jig seen by everyone watching Spirit's landing. We'll see if he will do a dance around any robots.

John,
I saw a few 111 teasers last year, but they weren't on CD (I'm pretty sure you got to them, too).

Mike [Soukup],
Am I going to find any 111 pictures or videos by taking educated guesses on directory names? Or did you take care of that after last year ?

Did the dance. Not my fault NASA TV was looking the other way. Still owe me some donuts.

Well, here is a teaser for you. I'm not even sure if I'm allowed to post this:

Ooh, exciting.

We meant to do that - yeah that's it. We may just have to bury some gold in our directory this year to keep the tradition going.

Dancing? - my wife says I am not a good dancer, but I have always been motivated by money.

Video - I will ask our producer from the past to see if he can do something.
