[Cialug] OT Robotics

[Lathrop Preston]

Sorry to chime in late. I just got back from camping myself. I've been
getting very interested in robotics recently (my youngest brother is
on his school FIRST robotics team) July 9 would be good for me. My
thought is we should start broad and not restrict out potential
members based on tech level or age or platfrom.
