Re: Homeschool teams can be banned by state?

Wow, that is no fun. Back in 2003-04, when ExCEL was still forming, there were a number of people who were trying to get WSO to change it's policies so that we could not compete. One play they made was an attempt to get WSO to join Washington's version of NMAA. But WSO's board knew that those people...

Re: tips for a noob?

Hey Starter Pack, welcome to Scioly. Do you know if your team is going to any invitationals in your area? Because it is on the day of competition that you really catch the bug. All the nervous tension and adrenaline experienced with your friends, that is a lot of what makes SO fun. Speaking of adren...

Re: Politics

My state passed it's Concealed Carry law back in 1961, a year after my Dad was born. In the fifty years since then our violent crime hasn't disappeared, but neither has the state become known for escalating Wild West shootouts. In fact, I am not aware of any case where one law-abiding citizen shot a...

Re: 2011 AMC

The first thing I thought when I saw the title of this thread was, "Chrysler is bringing the Gremlin and Pacer back?" The reality is probably preferable.

Ah, but I won't be 21 tomorrow. Which is coming awfully fast if you happen to live in the Eastern time zone.

Re: Old People Reunion?

Right, I came back to do my quarterly search for new posts from certain users. In case you were wondering, the search came up with nothing new. As far as what I am doing, what do you want to know? I bought a Kia Sephia a year and a half ago, and it is one zippy little ride. (I compare the performanc...

Anyone who does not participate in 2 straight rounds will be removed from the game with the possibility of someone who didn't register in the beginning taking their place.
I would be interested in dropping in if someone wants out.

To create a donut, you specify its inside and outside diameters and its center. You can continue creating multiple copies with the same diameter by specifying different cent...

Re: cool carz?

I would go for a top-fuel dragster, if they didn't have the habit of destroying their engines every couple of runs. On the other hand, going from 0-100 in 0.8 seconds would be an awful lot of fun.

Barring that, you could interest me in a Tesla.
