Gee, when I was 11, I devised a complete hydraulic system for Lego,
and sent it to them (Samsonite).  I got back a nice letter telling me
what a smart little boy I was, and how I was certain to be successful,
and how they couldn't make use of the idea at the time.

I was just wondering how old most of the members in this forum are? I suspect most people active in Robotics as a hobby aren't children. I'm just about to turn 36, but I was dreaming about Lego Robots since I was 8. MG (...) (25 years ago, 22-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics)
