I also thought it was Sim motor on my freshman year... One of the seniors made me believe they were invented by Simbotics 1114, so that made some kind of sense

Yes, but the real question is who still knows what CIM stands for these days?

I love when one of the letters of an initialism or acronym stands for another initialism or acronym. Like FRC.
