David Smith (in from Dallas)
Ed Southerland
Wade, Helen and Roger Yamada
Kurt brought another of his fantastic minifig scale sailing
ships. Ed brought some of his current MOCs, including some
small mecha models. David brought a bunch of nifty scifi themed
models, and a really cool miniland-scale office cubicle model.
I did some highly random demonstrations of David Perdue's sumo
robots (and thanks to David for letting me borrow his 4'
circular arena). I spent some time describing the robots and
their coding to Roger and his parents. (Roger's team placed 8th
at the recent Austin First Lego League competition.)
Lee and I also brought some stock Lego models. Roger was able
to successfully get an attacker to climb the back of Lee's
Citadel of Orlan. Lego's large scale Ferrari Technic model got
good notices.

Thanks to everyone who came out. I had a great time, and I'm
looking forward to the March gathering. We'll be finalizing the
rules for the sumo contest, targeting the contest for April.
