Jay,

Heavy Metal Noise looks great!  How much would it cost you to ship the robot and 
supplies out west for Battlebots, or did you drive?  One of the reasons I never 
started a bot years ago was because all the events were on the west coast.

To bad your not closer to Orlando.  I'm going to be down there in August (lucky me 
;-).  I would have loved to check out your work.
