Hi, I’m Tom Gray (Woodie Flower’s grad student at MIT)

I need people to take 20-30 minutes to complete and online tutorial at test on the SharingFIRST.mit.edu website. I need 100 people to take go through the pretest, tutorial, posttest ritual and 40 have done it so far.

You need quicktime and you can follow the link below. I am really desparate and I hope you can help me.

I was Tigger and Pooh at the Nationals.

Consider it done! Always willing to help out a fellow FIRST-er.

One question though…will that website still be up after you get your 100 participants? If I get into mentoring FIRST teams, your site would be a good resource for explaining such terms to other students.

All in all, I enjoyed the lesson.

Chris, #368

The website will be up and and you will always be able to find the link at http://sharingfirst.mit.edu/icandy/torque_speed. The tests will probably go away and just leave the information.

Sorry. I don’t know if it was common but I’m the girl who ran up and jumped on you. I either had my blonde hair or a silver wig on. It probly wasn’t the best thing I could do but it was funny. (Which is no excuse). I apologize for my actions.

Hey, I think jumping on people’s back is a really fun thing to do. If you feel really bad go to http://sharingfirst.mit.edu/icandy/torque_speed and take an online quiz and tutorial to help me graduate.

I’ll take the quiz and help you graduate. A friend of mine is there now and he’s at the same point. He has to do stuff that he thinks is retarded. He decided his freshman year that he wanted to become a bartender. He plans to open his own pub. Anyway, I’m glad you think that it was funny that I jumped on your back. I have a habbit of doing that and some people get mad about it.
