New Orleans has been on the verge of a natural disaster involving water for 400 years, and (...) (20 years ago, 4-Aug-06, to lugnet.events.brickfest, FTX)

  Re: 9748 Droid Developers CD
 
With the kit? Bad joke, I know. You could try and explain to Lego that your cd has exploded into fragments and would like a replacement. If that doesn't work send me a mail off list and I'll see if I can help. Linmix (...) (20 years ago, 4-Aug-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Viking Fortress Colour Oddity

  Re: rtlToronto22 Ideas?
 
(...) Yes, touch sensors can be used, in fact none of the 3T robots that I am aware of actually used light sensors to directly detect the color of the blocks for tic-tac-toe (some used light sensors indirectly).
