The TechnoKats watched the kick-off at our local college auditorium through the NASA broadcast and I thought of a name, that I think is fun.
With robots hanging off the striped middle bar and all the action in the human zones, I thought of this name for the FIRST 2000 Game:
Jungle Gym Mayhem
What do you think?
I’m very excited about this year’s game. I can’t believe the number of new teams this year! We’ll have so many more people to meet from all over the country! Plus, this year, it’s anyone’s game…
Sincerely,

I agree Vinny! There are so many new teams to meet and play with! It’s going to be great! Though I like the name, but perhaps you should change the ‘mayhem’ part. It doesn’t seem to roll of the tongue well, though it does fit!! 
See you in competition!
Good luck,

I think anything with ‘millennium’ in the name is a bad idea, as it is bound to open a
VERY large rathole concerning the actual start of the millennium (2000 vs. 2001).
The same goes for ‘century’.
