Howdy all LRGOAA & MichLUG members, Seeing as how LRGOAA is a LEGO centric club in Michigan and MichLUG is a LEGO centric club in Michigan, it seemed odd (to me) that we have never met. I'd be keen to try and organize a joint meeting. I ran this by (...) (20 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.org.us.lrgoaa, lugnet.org.us.michlug, FTX)

As several of you know, I spent last weekend at Robolympics, in San Francisco... (URL) was a lot of fun. I got to see some combat robots in action (aka Battle Bots), and I took a shot at some non-combat events. I ended up taking seven robots to (...) (20 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.org.us.lrgoaa)

I just received (and payed) an invoice from HiTechnic regarding my order of 2 EOPDs and 1 Ultrasonic sensor. It wasn't a verry good time right now, but... those are good to have.
