Boy this is a bummer. I hope you all can get NASA TV…
I’ve heard that the 2000 FIRST Robotics Competition Manual will not
be posted til sometime in the day AFTER the kick-off has ended. Try
the website at about 4 or 5 O’clock.
If memory serves me correct, didn’t the web site open at noon last year? And
the year before we got a sample that we could fax back to the team awaiting it
at home?

It was available late morning(around 11). I only remember the time because I was watching the kickoff online until I had to leave for the meeting that my team was having that afternoon, and I was able to get the manual downloaded before I had to leave.
Either way, Kickoff Central will be online and watching the FIRST site to let you know as soon as it becomes available…visit Kickoff Central at the link below…

E-mailed Lori just a couple minutes ago for a definite answer on what they’re going to do…

Here’s the e-mail that I just got back from Lori at FIRST:
Nate,
It should be made available around noon again this year. Maybe not exactly at noon…but there abouts.
