When you do that, I recommend you not only test the 9 "on-brick" programming options on the page, but also the 18 "off-brick" programming tools, even if they're not allowed in FLL. :) Woops, guess I shouldn't have told you how many there are.

This isn't Russia, dude. Your page is good and useful. If someone else wants to put up a better page, then they should get off of their fat "MCPs" and do it instead of critisizing your work. If they can do a better job, then fine. You have no need (...) (19 years ago, 18-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)
