Lets meet today at 1:45 p.m. There is still a lot to do and let us keep up the momentum!! We can make a TODO list and keep working on the minibot. As for the minibot we need to start testing the starting/stopping switch, install the "honing" funnel and then try to see if we can use the larger diameter magnet for better speed.

WRT Jags: We've seen Jag's die b4, finicky devices that they are, sometimes without proper justification. The black ones were supposed to be a bit more resilient. Maybe a quick look at Chief Delphi on the topic will give us a clue if we might be able to fix it simply (some internal blown component/etc). We are at a math competition this morning. Not sure what hours we can come today/rest of the week/weekend. Specifically, for Steven, when is work planned on the minibot?

Folks, Our beloved robot will now get 10 days of peace and quite without anyone bothering it. It is all bagged and tagged and patiently waiting to for the 3rd. Tonight we managed to mount the arm motor, but a Jaguar died so we could not test the entire robot. The Jaguar that died makes a clicking sound on power so we suspect that it is destroyed. I will order 1 or 2 new Jaguars. There is still plenty to do between now and Wednesday. The most important being getting all packed up with tools and such to take to Manchester. Let meet tomorrow as usual at 1:30 for a short meeting so that we can discuss the plans for the next week.
