====Well thank you that's nice of you to say. I made these lil' bots to help
me clean up. I do however build the Mechs myself over a long period of time.
I try to work on my project everyday, a little at a time. Staying up late
and generally bringing myself to the brink of insanity. Thank goodness for
all of you guys, my saviours, vindicators, facilitators.

====Cool, I plan to have a great time. Which reminds me, I better start
programming the Super-Mech bot to do interesting things, or it'll end up
being a static sculpture!

====True. Funny thing is I kinda liked Frank and I thought about this and I
for some reason took issue, fact is his post was in off-topic debate and he
has a right to express himself. I found his remarks to be negative toward
our group and I just felt like saying something. Being friends is more
important to me. I think we can all find something interesting about each
others building styles if we just take the time to look.

====True, I too felt some people just go off on these tangents and debates.
Just sit down and build and respect thy neighbor. This comment was pointed
out to me and, I don't know...I just did'nt like it. To each his own.

====Good point. We all feel differently about certain topics. On he other
hand maybe he did'nt think his comment thru, it was bound to bother some of
us here.
I showed bad form by engaing in a tit-for-tat type of "just build your
pirate ships and paly brickwars" I strive to attatin high goals then to act
like that. It was a little imature, but like I said I felt he dissed our group.
Your right for pointing this stuff out. It's all good.

insanity!!!!
