The former.  There's just too much other stuff in most of our lives that is more
important right now.  For Chris, it might his kitchen or his kids.  For me, it's
work and the fact I haven't even STARTED on my thesis work all summer.

The general lay of the land I was thinking for rtlToronto in the next six months
was:

Robotics:

Fall 2004: Eas(y)(ier) Game of Some Sort (Drag Racing, Little Blocks)
Winter 2005:  Hard Game of Some Sort (ProjectX, C4 calibre)
Spring 2005:  RC Game (eg, live3/beat the living crap out/racing)

Train:

November 2004: Hobby Show (train6m)
December 2004: Christmas Train Show (train6m)

Etc:

November 2004: FLL Ontario

Calum
