See, I'm a little different, here. If it were me, I'd let everyone know how to
reach guy #2. He was nice to you, and you [may] want to repay the favor.
Of course, you may 'flood' him with work and put him out of the business... but
that's like being too nice to someone...

Speaking of robots (my robot)...
If you ever want to test a Connect-Four robot, take it to a First Lego League
tournament. You'll find hundreds of young (and not-so-young) LEGO fans, who
have about an hour's worth of work to do, and only eight hours to do it.
I was able to worm my way out of about half our time commitment, so I spent
about 7 1/2 hours watching my robot torture kids.
It was a great test of the hardware and software. I have some changes already
in progress...
