They showed me a new item and said "we don't know how to list this on the inventory." I took one look, started laughing and said "In my world that is called a game piece, aka, a tote." |

a robot that is broken shows that it has survived more than a robot that doesn't even have a scratch. |

The first was a fish, all silver and spotted.
“An opah?” I asked. “Yes,” my friend nodded.
I knew not what it meant as I sat there and stared,
But I appreciated the thoughts that the posters had shared. |

we were sick and tired of compromises: "speed or torque", "traction or maneuverability", etc.; bump that, we want it all. all we had to compromise was simplicity. |

Remember, FIRST is merely a means to an end - the end result being that we completely change the world for the better. |

FIRST, in itself, will not make you an engineer. |

...FIRST was created to change that world for the better. To presume that FIRST is simply here for your enjoyment is to demote it to nothing more than an expensive game... |

So remember, we may be envious of teams who can do water jet cutting and has every possible monetary and engineering advantage, but there are many more people who are envious of every team who has a chance to compete. |

Nice going guys!! Not only did you succeed in reviving this thread, but you woke up Dave from his mid summer slumber. Now we are going to get 6 months of pre-kickoff torture!! |

That's right 10 years and this is the first time ever that the school wanted anything to do with the FIRST team. |

I think Dave has been spending time on icanhascheezburger. Either that or the fumes from his rendering machines have affected the grammar control portion of his brain. |

I wonder if we sang songs to Bill Miller if that would get TIMS opened sooner, like the way it worked to wring game hints out of Dave Laverly. |
