Robots come from all over the world to...

Well in this case they come from all over the world to arm wrestle a female San Deigo high school student. That is right, robots from Virginia Tech, from the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Testing and Research and from Environmental Robots of Albuquerque, NM are going to San Diego to arm wrestle Panna Felsen. Panna is straight A high school senior. This competition was suggested by Yoseph Bar-Cohen, a physicist at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. In 2003 Business Week named Yoseph one of the five top technology gurus who are "Pushing Tech's Boundaries". Sounds great but Panna does not sound like your average arm wrestling champ. Perhaps the idea is to start small. So good luck to all the teams.
