just thinking about the array of mechanisms awaiting my examination tingles the thinky parts of my brain. |

If we supply the part that adds the awesome to their robot, that makes us look good too. |

No amount of sleep beforehand will make up or prepare you for the lack of sleep you will receive during build season. |

And I have to say, those days where you are just beating yourself, and smacking your head against the wall, and you just wish the robot would catch fire so you could go home, make the top of the mountain that much sweeter. |

At first, "water game" was funny. Then it went to silly. Now it's just dumb. Not to mention unrealistic for FIRST. |

The closest and strongest friendships that I have formed, however, have come from the FIRST robotics program. Friends that I can call “brother,” that I can call “sister,” that I can just call “family.” |

You know you are addicted to FIRST when you have trouble describing it because you realize it truly is way more than just a robotics competetion. |

Oh, for the love of cod, can't you see that Dave is messing with us just for the halibut? When the actual clue comes out, I'm sure we'll all be singing a different tuna. |

I volunteered to be the person responsible for the electronics and raised my hand before realizing that I have had almost no electronics experience. I hope our robot turns out alright... |

The driver must have a relationship with the robot, the driver should talk to the robot, speak soft encouraging words to it. Pet names are also a good idea. If the driver does not love the robot, how can the driver learn to trust the robot. |

I'd say start working on other forms of wireless communication. Scout using Morse Code, hand signals, light flashes (LOST anybody?)... Paper cups and string are cheap too... |

We should create string networks at Nats. Just have miles of string running between the Georgia Dome and the GWCC. :D |

And your other point, "why a debate over a nonexistent rule?". Its summer, we're not building robots, and we're geeks. What else are we supposed to do? |
