Re: TechTV show?

Sorry, I'm having trouble converting my video from VHS (some of my video hardware died) so I won't be able to get that up.

But here is a segment of TechLive's show note from Monday May 19, as written by Chris Leary:

"For those of you who would kindly indulge my ego, it's nice to be back from
my trip to NYC to do "The View," and then to Atlanta for the FIRST Robotics
competition. You'll see that on an upcoming edition of our new show, "Let
'er Rip." Those of you who don't care where I was, please forgive me.

Tonight on "Tech Live," I'll have a story on that FIRST competition where
thousands of fun-loving, excited nerds competed in building and then battling
with their robots. As cheesy as this might sound, I don't remember the last
time I met so many incredibly nice, well-mannered kids. I kinda wish I was
smart when I was that age so I could have hung out with kids like them.
As for the competition, it appears they have an abundance of creativity
as well. We'll show you a bit of what I'm talking about, tonight."


I thought that was pretty cool.

Great channel. It just appeared one day on my cable channels, right around the time they started the channel. They have gone through so many changes and improvements, it’s kind of crazy to see how far they have gotten.

Unfortunately Cox isn't available where I am. I'm in western Connecticut and I have Optimum. I also use them for my broadband cable internet.

Re: TechTV show?

I dont get tech TV, but I often go over to a friend's house to watch it as it is such a great channel. When someone finds out when this one hour special will be on air will you please PM me as I would really really like to watch/record it. The bronx team that they followed had their pit next to ours in Richmond, nice group.

Re: TechTV show?

YAY 4 techtv... lol... i have a small personal FTP w/ unlimited d/l so if you need a place to upload the segement AIM me and i can put it up...

the new series TechTv is putting on looks awsome, espically the way they described it... a pit member of 121 (matt goulart) got intervied in the pits during one of our teams matches (he was brutally pnished later in the night) and meet both Patrick Norton and Chris Leary... so he might be in there =/... if he is... no one will be seeing him at any competition's next year =D
