[Robotgroup] BTW: I'm on YouTube! (kinda)

[Denise Scioli]

Robert,

You did a great job of adding verbal flare to the ping pong printer's presence at Plutopia.  My only regret with this video is that the person shooting the video cut you off as you were so eloquently describing the hidden agenda about our two-story giant ping pong shooting .......and the video stops.
