I too agree that a lot is being lost. I have thought several time since I
retired to goto the  school system here in Magnolia and see if they have a
robot club.

Over the years I have aquired buukuus of DC motors, transistors, resistors,
switches, and stuff like that with the intentions of building some robotic
devices. I just never seem to get around to it.

 Give all this stuff to the robot club.  Or maybe I will bring it to Chicago
and see if anyone up there can use.

Or maybe we could get out in the middle of the room and build something
there, and hook it up to a Coco.
