Figure out a name for the rtl11 Contest that's funny and witty.  It should
be in the form of:

        rtlToronto11: Fall Into the Gap
        rtlToronto11: No Robot is an Island.

        Use the words "bridge" or "gap" or "island" or some combination.
Extra points if you use the word "flag".

Prize:  A Lego octopus or a PCI DEC Tulip Ethernet card.

Background:

Every rtlToronto event has a formal name, a series name, and a slogan name.
For example:  rtlToronto10 has the formal name of "The Tenth Toronto Lego
Robotics Event", the series name "rtlToronto10" and the slogan "Project X".
The slogan is usually something funny or related to the challenge (ie,
Project X was about making an X pattern robot, and also happened to be the
tenth event in Roman numerals) Some slogans include "Show Me the Monkey"
(Monkeybars robots), "Fear of a Bot Planet" (after a Futurama episode and
the seminal Public Enemy album, "Fear of a Black Planet") and "The Plastic
Dust is Normal".

Extra groaning is preferred, they tend to be really cheesy.  (Cuba Gooding
Jr hasn't returned our calls for rtl9)

Calum
PS-I don't have to use your idea so don't feel bad. :)
