FIRST is NOT just about robotics. It is about the growth of leaders - of Gracious Professionals... |

It's a skid-steer vehicle, so it depends on the phase of the moon and yesterday's lottery numbers. |

Is the bottom slot just to make the whole thing look like a smiley face, or is it functional? |

Having the foolish belief that you can win a match in which you are completely outgunned will drive you to develop a winning strategy. |

Of course I'm not an admin, so this opinion is worth about as much as a disco record or AOL Free Trail CD. |

My strongest FIRST memories, and the teams that leave the biggest impact on me, are teams that seem like they have every reason to give up, but never do. |

Cooling fans? Never had the need. Then again, we're talking New Jersey in March. Radiant heaters might be a better choice, or maybe snow boots. |

Earlier this week it took me a little bit too long to realize that the reason my pen wasn't writing correctly was that it was actually a screwdriver. I'm going to have to ask for a few nights of honest sleep before signing off on a report. |

Change 'car' to 'robot', 'coffee' to 'mountain dew' and Tom Brady to will.I.am, and you have next year's kickoff intro. |

I'm really impressed with how much effort we'll go to, to avoid buying a $25 servo tester. |

I am always torn between running a family and running a team... I guess the difficulty is in supporting the team as a whole before the individual...or alongside the individual. |

Several really good programming and control specialists haunt CD, but a thread titled "motor failure" might not attract their notice soon. |

(middle school age) One time I had a truly awful day at school and came home crying. My mother's response? "Do you want to go to the build session tonight? It will make you feel better.."
And it did. It always does. |

As you get more into your years in FRC, you start becoming friends with more people. You should try it out. Robotics people are pretty nice. |

Their robot moves so fast that it changes colour due to the Dopler Effect. By rapidly alternating between driving away from the viewer (Redshift) and driving toward the viewer (Blueshift), they can make the viewer see it in their traditional purple colour. |

One of my early mentors gave me wise words -- when designing a system to compile & analyze information, your first design choice should always include consideration of a stack of 3x5 file cards. |
