I have an extra IG backpack for anyone who needs it. Will trade for pirate stuff or minifig/torsos. (Yeah so this should go on buy-sell-trade, but I like this forum better--more targeted) Drop me an email Ed (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)

I can offer some suggestions. Part of the fun of Lego MindStorms is figuring things out on one's own ... but a few hints probably won't hurt. Because the light sensor is particularly sensitive to infrared (IR), you should be able to use it to locate (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

The problem with that is that what Larry sees as decent and what I see as decent are two different things. Which is fine by me.
