I guess what I am trying to say is that GP is inside all of us just waiting for a chance to escape. I am sure how the virus spread. I put the blame solely on the shoulders of Chief Delphi. |

They didn’t have to help me. But they did. I have gained so much respect for all the mentors in FIRST from that point on. |

I've always thought that what makes an average person exceptional is not their inability to make mistakes, but rather their ability to recognise, rectify, and learn from them. |

I think it will be very hard to find one aspect of FIRST which doesn't inspire us. |

Everyone here inspires each other and helps them out. That's why FIRST is amazing. |

Through 30 years of teaching I've heard the same refrain..."I love science, I love math but I can't stand my language classes".
Well enough is enough. Get over it. |

Chiefdelphi is a great resource for all of FIRST to use over the years and has grown into a community that has taken a life of it's own. |

If by hazardous you mean thinking about robots 24/7, waking up at 2am in the morning to jot some ideas down, completely losing your social life, and staring at a computer until your eyes hurt, then yeah! :D |

since when is not sleeping, caring more about the robot and such bad for you? If it is how come I didn't get the memo? :ahh: |

Obama's got to stop saying all of these FIRST like statements and should just give us money and show up at Championship. |

So kudos for asking advice... you've got plenty of good advice so far in this column... but honestly, if Orville and Wilbur Wright had taken good advice they would have packed up and gone back to their bicycle shop. |

Robotics is really preparing us for jobs at NASA. Look. We're past deadline, overweight, overbudget, and our project doesn't even work! |

This year may be one of the first years where there is a drastic difference in Regional level and Championship level strategies that drive robot design. |

FIRST is just a single step in a multi-step process. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither are solutions to the world's problems. |

In FIRST, there's no such thing as too many 1/4-20 bolts, too many bottles of caffeinated beverage, and too much knowledge from others. |

I was dragged to the first team meeting in September my freshman year and a week later, found myself at Fall Classic. Needless to say, after experiencing the heat of a competition, I was in love. ... Robotics has become far more than just that. I get to do the coolest thing in the world. |

I don't miss the manufactured magic of Disney because Championships creates magic in itself; wherever the event may be held. |

Ideally, you'll make sure your drive system can handle some Irritating Failures without them becoming Paralyzing Failures. |

When FIRST teams are as numerous and as well supported as basketball teams, we will know that our culture is preparing young people to compete in the 21 st century and we are spending our 2 million minutes wisely. |

I would suggest spending a few more hours digesting the manual before you finalize your designs. You seem to have missed a few key rules. |
