A wrench isn't a nesscary part is it?
Last Night, we tested the robot and a large, (yes I said LARGE) wrench fell from somewhere on the robot....Along with bolts, nuts, and a very interestingly cut piece of Aluminum... |

I quickly realized that, "hey, I'm looking at a wonderful piece of technology that defies gravity" and I calmed down quite a bit. |

I learned that I don't have a clone, there are only 24 hours in a day, and I can't do everything I want to do (even though I tried) and I learned that I have to say "no" once in a while. |

the FIRST season is never over . . it just pauses a while so you can get some sleep. |

Super Regional? I don't know...if you combine NJ and Philly the universe might tear a hole in itself...and we wouldn't want that now would we? Mwahaha. |

What I would really love to see is having the teams try to solve a problem that is real scientists are trying to solve right now. Wouldn't it be cool if a team came up with a robot design that could solve one of the world's worst problems? Talk about FIRST publicity! |

Look around. What else could cause folks to go sleepless for six straight weeks? That's life-changing, isn't it? :D |

At this rate, Team Update #2 should just eliminate the Minibots and replace it with the drive team captains playing rock-paper-scissors to determine the bonus points. |

Right, play to win. Play to win the event or play to win one match? This year, unfortunately, they are not the same thing. |

An explanation of the reasoning behind design decisions will almost always result in a more thorough understanding of the solution than analysis alone can obtain. |

We should have a 'Steps Taken For FIRST' contest. Everyone wear a pedometer and keep a log of how many miles you walked at the St. Louis Championship. That could be a lot of fun. Do they make pedometers for robot carts? |

It is a difficult balancing act - we're engineers because we like to solve problems, and to take a step back and let someone else solve it, with what may be a poorer solution, is darn hard.

FIRST is definitely worth any amount of money any company gives. FIRST really puts on good events for us, and I can see where the money is going. |

I looked at it and originally thought it was a crazy idea... then I looked at it again and it still sounds like a crazy idea. But crazy ideas tend to produce some excellent results. |

For those who don't have snow in the forecast - i.e., not New England - just send me your shipping address and I'll FedEx some snow to you right away. We have extra. :p - DonRotolo [more]
