As guests in the city, we should make an effort to do some fundraising for the folks affected by the storm. Any ideas out there? |

I used to wonder if the FRC staff would read the CD game hint posts and just laugh to themselves..now I know they do. |

Frankly, I love CD and everything it stands for. I've made more friends from this forum alone than I ever expected to meet in FIRST. I'd give just about anything to keep this system up, upgraded and going on long into the future. It's not even enough to show my thanks and gratitude. |

"Splet" is the sound a frog makes when it hits pavement at 187 feet per second. Don't ask me how I know. |

I've never encountered a motor as forgiving as a CIM - Stall them for 20 seconds, run them hot on a short turnaround, or call them mean names in between matches and they'll just keep doing their thing. |

Making GP a rule would be the equivalent of making a law that says you have to help get kittens out of trees. |

Goodness, YES. Please get a copy of the rules. It explains a lot, and if your robot does NOT follow the rules, you will not be allowed to compete. Really, it is very important. |

The point of FRC (in my opinions) is to teach the kids that might have no skills, new skills. |

The answer doesn't lie with an all student run team, or an Engineer-fest team... But somewhere in the middle. Moderation is key. |

My crotchety old person opinion is that it should be illegal to try to win the award. Do things because you like doing them or because it helps others. Don't do things to win awards. |

I don't think that FIRST is going to get better with a top down solution alone, it is going to take a grass roots effort to strengthen teams. That starts by teams getting off their "islands", self imposed or otherwise. |

You should qualify the same way you eliminate if you ask me. |

It's not about a team having lots of money to spend to travel the world to share FIRST but how the team draws the world into their FIRST experience. |

Let this be a hint to the hardware teams. Deliver that robot early and give the software and driving team time with the robot. IR3 has proven it can be done. |

I just want to say that the rack 'n roll was my first year with FIRST! It was the best thing I ever did. I cant wait to learn more when we get to start up again! |

You pick the best person for the job whether they are black, white, asian, hispanic, female, or male; NOT so you 'look good' when they publish your team picture in the school paper, but because they can get the job done right, on time, with a passion. |

Naw, basketball isn't nearly as great a sport as FRC. They play for the money. We play for honor, dignity, and respect. |

I don't mind being odd...I like to - listen - to Dean Kamen's speeches.
They make sense. I don't get to listen to a lot of sense in the world, just a lot of noise. |
