(...) Well Mr. Chris (the gentleman) :) I have read the article in question, and find your name appears 5 times.... not just 3. Hmmmm.....so even your assesment of Calum is short-sighted. Makes you really wonder what is going on in Calum's head.... (...) (23 years ago, 28-Aug-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

This would make it easier to place and start robots, to catch them if they fall, plus would give everyone around a better view. (...)
