I loved that show and it tought me a lot of what I know today about ways to do things and ways to not do things :D I might watch this show a few times this year, but I'm pretty sure I won't be impressed with it at all. I think if I went on there, or really, any FIRSTer that is like me (used to take things apart when he/she was little, made things in elementary school that most high schoolers couldn't make, and tried to think of things that everybody could use) that I could be picked, but then, it would probably ruin my life or something.

I wish Where In The World Is Carmen Sandiego was back on TV....

I think the real problem is that inventors don't create final products, the create ideas. As I remember from the IDEO spot that was on the news awhile ago, an inventor created dental floss, but someone had to put it in the convenient package with the cutting device. :]

So who does everyone want to win this year's competition?

Guardian Angel Christmas Tree firefighting device?

HT Racers?

Convertible Bra?


I really want the Guardian Angel to win the competition, but want to see the HT Racers on the market. I'm thinking they can be used in design classes for pre-requisites for FIRST teams of all kinds. :)

Same for me, Guardian Angel is my top pick.
Too bad the bike camp did not move on, I would like to buy several of them.

(could have used the "clamp" on the 2005 FRC Game!)
