  Re: NCLUG Show / LEGOPalooza at Morehead Planatarium in Chapel Hill
 
(...) I am a little confused on the tense used in the above paragraph. Since the event happened on the 3rd and 4th and the post was made on the 3rd (same month) should the tense have been past tense? Instead, the tense implied the event was (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-07, to lugnet.loc.us.nc, lugnet.org.us.nclug)

  FLL at Science Central
 
This weekend, I was working on a FLL robot for the Science Central event in a couple weeks. That went well. It's not 100% reliable, because it's hard telling how many atoms are coming off the table, and sometimes the stain-resistant fabric just (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-07, to lugnet.org.us.laflrc)

  Re: RCX controlled GBC train drawbridge
 
(...) Not yet... No train. In fact, all the train track is borrowed from Steve H and Steve's Mom. I've got track on order, but nothing else. Someday maybe I'll buy a train ;) (...) Actually factored that in. At the bottom it is 10-wide, but the top (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-07, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.laflrc)
 
  Re: RCX controlled GBC train drawbridge
 
(...) Very slick-looking John. It seems odd that one of the neatest attractions in the GBC may be only tangentially related to soccer balls, but that is a very nice design. I especially like the electrical cutouts at both ends. I have to ask, have (...) (19 years ago, 4-Feb-07, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.laflrc)
 
  RCX controlled GBC train drawbridge
 
I suppose this doesn't have to really be for the GBC only, but that was why I decided to build it. I've been playing with this idea since Brickfest '06 when Steve Hassenplug suggested a way to go in & out of the GBC area without crawling under the (...)

  Re: RC Rock Crawling
 
(...) Wow, those guys went all out, they even "towed" one truck with another. Pretty nice. At some times it was hard to tell those were RC and not real trucks.

  Re: January 2007 SMART meeting notes

Mike & All, (...) Indeed.
