"Fern was up at daylight, trying to rid the world of injustice. As a result, she now has a pig." -Mr. Arable

OK, so we don't have a pig, but we do have a really neat robotic spider. We spent most of January 1998 learning about LEGOs, handylogo, and robotics in general, and finally designing and building Charlotte. The course was a lot of work, but it was fun- after all, how often do you get to play with LEGOs and get academic credit at the same time?
