Well i guess the only thing left for me to do is tip my hat and call Karthik, Chris Hibner, EricH and Bill Gold my daddy. |

As long as teams keep showing their consistency in innovation, FIRST will keep dazzling us all. |

I don't think Brandon is actually doing this, I think he has CD-47 Bot and Archiver locked in a closet doing all this while he has fun |

FIRST is our lever and the mentors are the fulcrum. |

Consider yourself mentored, you have learned a lesson: "Don't stick your hands in icky things." |

It is an honor and a privilege to be associated with such an outstanding group of people. And Arefin. |

What else could you do with a t-shirt? Wait... never mind... I retract my previous statement and realized this is FIRST and we can do anything with anything. ;) |

I have always liked to see people get recognized for what they do, not people doing something to get recognized. |

Coming soon to an Earth near you; an Australian team (or 2). Stay tuned. |

If there was no internet then somebody in FIRST would probably invent it. |

You can also always use the "Report Post" button on each post and that'll dispatch a carrier pigeon to each of our homes...or an e-mail if the carrier pigeons have taken the day off. |

Don't limit programming to just hitting keys, there is a lot of logic/design involved. |

What no one knows is that I’m actually wearing fishnet stockings under this gown… as soon as they finish taking all of these darn photos I’m going to show Dave and Amanda who really has the best legs in FIRST!!! |

We don't build robots because it's easy, we do it because it's hard. Maybe we can work on giving new members a warmer and gentler welcome, because it's hard ;). |

All I know is I have fun building a robot, and I have fun competing with it. If I get an award, I'm happy. If I don't, then too bad. Either way, I'm coming back next year. |

The biggest fallacy in FIRST is the belief we are just a bunch of different teams. We are ONE BIG TEAM with a lot of sub teams for the purpose of competition. |

FIRST is not all about the competitions. FIRST is about what you learn to get to wherever you got to, whether that be first seed or last. |

Look past the robot. Look past your team. Science and technolgy are studies worth devoting your life too. |

the weather always does funny things to people, like when it snows, all these engineers take kids, lock themselves in machine shops & build robots......weird |

You have no idea how happy I am that so many are taking an interest into accomadating their off season competitions for pre-rookies. |

That is why I think that the Chairman's Award is better. You can have a great robot and something weird happen to your alliance and you are out. If you have a great team and win the Chairman's Award you are in the Hall of Fame forever. |

Building a robot is one thing - but the fun I have had with my mentors, parents, and other students on team outings is something I cherish. |

To me, the changing rules are a big part of the fun. If the rules stayed the same year to year, robots would start to look the same. That would be boring. - Richard Wallace [more]
