This year it is what it is and, at some point, we will all find out what that is, specifically. |

When faced with large problems, I always see it as an opportunity to dream big. Really big. |

Clearly and clearly, the go-to place is Chief Delphi. It connects all the dots. |

Maybe we should have some safety training before and during build instead of just having flyers at our pit. Hm... |

As a programmer, I am trying to use more 0's than 1's to save weight. |

Well, there goes my strategy of blowing out the opponent and then committing flagrant safety and sportsmanship violations to keep the margin close :D |

By the end of the year, I have a feeling that I'm going to know much, much more about the intricacies of orbit balls than I ever wanted to. |

The size, speed, and power of full sized FRC robots are much more sublime. People go to the zoo to see the lions and tigers, not the ants. |

Building a robot to survive 2 districts, a Regional, a Region Championship, and World Championships (plus 4 - soon to be 5 - off season events) is a challenge in itself. |

Our robot will use sensors to collect information about its environment, then discard that information and drive into a wall. |

Students learn from, are inspired by, and emulate their mentors. A team with a solid mentor base helps to create a productive, inspired, and ultimately successful group of students. |

All the same lessons that can be learned or taught with custom drive trains can also be learned or taught with custom manipulators and scoring mechanisms, and the latter is far more likely to set your team apart in the competition. |

The best way to get to Einstein is to analyze the game, figure out which three robots would make up the ideal Einstein alliance, and then design, build, iterate, and polish the one that best matches your teams' capabilities. |

The ideals that are held by myself and by many of the longtime FRC mentors and volunteers whom I consider friends and colleagues are bigger than FIRST, and we will find (or make) another vehicle for them if we are forced to. |

There will inevitably be enough unintentional failure in any endeavor we take on that adding intentional failure on top of that seems unnecessary. |

This is definitely the best FRC parody of an FRC parody I have seen. |

According to a 6 year old I once met at a demo, our FRC machine was not a robot because, "How can it be a robot if it doesn't have a face?" |

what is FIRST?...It's about innovation, hard work, inspiration, teaching, learning, experiment, strategy, competition, meeting new people, being inspired, aiming high and changing paradigms...Really, FIRST is what you make of it. |

It's one thing to post thoughts, guesses, opinions - that's all good ... However, it's [different] to make statements claiming first hand knowledge & facts without actually having first hand knowledge, facts, or accurate information. |

many of the greatest innovation throughout history have come from people who have ignored standard practices and traditional thinking. |

If it's not a sport, and it's not an art, it might as well be criminal behavior, because that's how you're going to be treated. |

Please ask yourself..."If my robot is on fire and the pneumatics are randomly activating, is my main breaker someplace that I want to put MY hand?" |

One of my early mentors gave me wise words -- when designing a system to compile & analyze information, your first design choice should always include consideration of a stack of 3x5 file cards. |

I suggest that FIRST should include a "big red button" in the KOP next year to make everyone happy. :p |
