Welcome Rick. I see that you like curling. Never tried it myself, but it looks like fun.
Now here's a challenge that seems as hard as the Turing test: make a robot that can curl.

Yes...
Given that the average curling stone is 40 pounds, a curling NXT would truly be an epic creation.
An NXT that sweeps the ice might be possible, given that the curling broom weighs only five pounds.
I think we could modify Jim's "Couchbotato" to be a sweeper.
