Congratulations to team 341, your work is nothing short of what I want to do when I grow up. |

Kids don't just decide they want to build robots then build the next Einstein champion the next year. |

Isn't that what we do here? It seems like no 'controversial' thread is complete until everyone gets a say. |

*gasp* Robotics? bad for your health? I refuse to accept that as an answer. |

Our rookie drivers generally get their first "real match" experience at the Florida Regional which is usually a week 2 or week 3 event. That is a much easier "practice event" than IRI. |

The Tekin's used to constantly suffer from spontaneous combustion, it was extremely frustrating how often they would go. |

The competition is about MUCH more than just the robot. If kids are glued to the robot all of the time, then they miss the rest of it... the other fun stuff, what makes FIRST, FIRST. |

We need to find the female engineering mentors in FIRST and start having them present/co-present technical conferences at the championships. We need to start showing the girls on the teams that there are female engineering "rock stars" to look up to. |

To find something they are so passionate about that it oozes into everything they do, and others can't help but want to follow them into this Counter-Culture where good is not good enough, Great is all they strive for. |

For those of us in the north, a water game turns into an ice game, which becomes Lunacy. And I don't think any of us want that. |

Engineering fundamentally comes down to problem solving, and if the students can't get excited and inspired by the problem solving process because someone has spoon fed them a solution, then nobody wins.

When we got it tuned to the point where we were (reasonably) confident it wouldn't slam into Dave's ankle, we quit for the evening. |

I then asked if I could use a flux capacitor for power, but that didn't go over too well, either (they did say I could use it for decorative purposes, though). |

I swear, sometimes it seems like FIRST has got a room full of monkeys writing code. Maybe the monkeys should spend less time flinging fecal matter at each other and more time testing the code before posting it :-). |

You can have any color robot you like, so long as it stays that color. So you shouldn't have to worry unless you have a chameleon bot. |

At GLR our team only had to deal with a bunch on kids seeing snow for the first time. With all the ensuing snow fights and vainly trying to run up the giant snowy hill behind the arena. |

I'll admit that the events at Epcot were pretty nice, but they too had their problems. . . You were at the mercy of the weather, and Disney hasn't figured out how to control that yet. |
