Actually, I wouldn't mind redoing rice, I have been thinking of ways to improve
my 'bot. Perhaps there were problems with attending the November Hobby Show,
rather than the type of contest. For example, I am planning a kitchen reno
around then. If we end up redoing rice 4 or 5 times, then maybe it would become
like sumo. However, several rtlToronto old-timers could not participate this
time, and maybe they'd like a chance to show their stuff.

(...) Initially I said I'd never do the Rice game again...I've changed my mind...I'd like to give it another try (not November). Bruce (23 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
