When ever Steve enteres a lego robot contest, his second question is
"... whats the prize?"

:)

What's my first question?

RTL has never OFFICIALLY had prizes, sure we have had people donate
things, sometimes even cool lego sets, but for the most part its not
about the prize, its about learning, and doing.

when Steve won first place in C$ his second statement to me was (to
paraphrase)  "...so what did i win?"


hmm.  again, what was my first statement?

Having to think quick on my feet, I explained to Steve for the millionth
time,  that he won "bragging rights."


I hope you're seeing someone about the memory losses...

Silly me.  I said I wasn't going for the prizes.

You'll need to point out that this message is from a couple years ago, so it
doesn't really count any more.  Like a salesman, you'll say anything to get
people to show up, then, of course, deny saying it...

:)



so, to this end, I have to play nice and listen to Steve brag on TechTV
about  winning  this robot contest, and how on certain other lego robot
forums Steve talks about his C$ robot, and winning....

Don't worry.  I don't want to embrass anyone, so I always make it a point not to
mention rtl.  :)

geesh I cant wait till he gets his back side whipped by someone from
RTL.  THEN the fun shall start,

You know, it could actually happen.  But, I'm not too worried.  As it turns out,
there are as many people outside rtl cheering FOR me as there are inside rtl
cheering against me.

Steve
