I got to talk with Mr. Flowers briefly last year. I told him that I had wanted to be part of FIRST since about 1980. It was nearly a quarter-century later when my son entered high school and I joined the TechnoKats as a mentor. |

We have about 16 pounds more to add, including the code- all that code can get heavy! |

Our robot-in-progress got set on the scale yesterday, It came to about 115 pounds. Then I walked up and took out the battery, and everyone relaxed some. |

anything that breaks a kitbot frame is probably breaking most custom frames of similar weight, too. |

217 would never collaborate with 1114 because they are crazy and they talk funny. |

...I tried to pump it up to the 47 inches. I stopped around 42 inches, than tried getting it through a 36" door. It got stuck, I proceeded to dropkick the thing in front of my team and a girl I had gone out with the previous Fri. It didn't move, I hit the floor.
Ouch, my pride. |

Doesn't make sense, Karthik. ...... You don't scare me, other than the way 1114 normally does. |

There is something to be learned (sometimes hard to find) from everyone you meet. |

Having a spare arm that you can put on in 5 minutes or less intimidates the hardware into not breaking. |

Students, mentors, schools, corporations, teams, and communities - they are all critical to the success of FIRST.

Mentors can either hide the experience of failure or support the right of a student in gaining that experience. |

The 2008 team is not the 2007 team and won't be the 2009 team. Every year is a new year and a new opportunity for growth and development as a FIRST team. It's very cool. |

The question is like asking "Is it better to drive by looking at a map the whole time or by remembering where you want to go and watching the road instead?" |

it's much easier to build safety in to a system than to add it on a Thursday at a regional. |

"What connection is the most vital to the success of your robot?" The one between the drivers brain and hands, and the one between the coaches brain and mouth. None of the other ones matter if those two don't work. |

Many would say it is both gracious and professional to make sure your robot will not damage another team's robot. |

Team 233 cannot wait for the Florida Regional, but they have to because they have to build a robot or something first. . . |
