The Fed Ex truck drove away yesterday with Optimus Lime. As promised, I did a little dance. I also wanted to remind you that we will be meeting tonight (Wednesday) to celebrate another successful build season. After we eat ice cream and other treats, we'll do a little clean up. We'll go from 6:00 to 7:30. —Buhler

There are many things that worked well:

1. We took the current season robot to scrimmage and we learned a lot from the experience.
2. We have a very smooth driving robot, thanks to the drive train and programming teams.
3. We have a fully functional manipulator before it went in the box thanks to manipulator, electrical and programing teams.
4. All control systems working with a completely new operator control before ship, thanks to a electrical team.
5. Lots of successful robot tuning and weight reduction in the last couple of days, in large part because the sub-teams cooperated. Many of the issues took cooperation between at least 3 teams.

And there are more highlights, but we can highlight them later. —Mr. Durbin
