First, Calum, can you bring T-shirts for us out-of-towners to the Montreal train show? I asked for medium, I'm not sure about anyone else. I vaguely recall Ka-On asked for medium also. I'll buy his too and get it to him if you have two medium's. If (...) (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.monlug)

  Naming: Request
 
I've noticed that at the more recent rtl events have had a lack of names for robots. IE, it's always just "X's Robot", where X = robot builder. Can everyone name their robots this time, like we used to like at, say, rtl4? Who could forget Rogue (...) (23 years ago, 5-Nov-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
