Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Anybody I can recognize or can recognize me to be sure... I'll be wearing my customary Qbranch sticker somewhere on my person...

Other than CD people, I'd like to (re)meet (and hopefully not run in to like in 2006 :ahh: ): Steve Wozniak, Bill Gates, Woody Flowers, Dean Kamen, and Sergey Brin... and many more that i'm not sure will or will not be coming to championship... I've herd a rumor the mythbusters are going to make an appearance. :D

See you all there!

I want to meet EVERYONE!
:)

Please come say hi to me, I'll be wandering around Friday and Saturday!

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Exactly why I changed my name on CD. :p

But anyways, I'm pretty open to meeting anyone from FIRST, but I think this year preferably people who are planning on attending either Rose Hulman or Purdue this coming year since thats where it looks like I'll be heading.

I think meeting the PurdueFIRST teams would be a goal. (There are 3 right?)

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

I want to meet everyone, but I will make it a point to try to meet Joe Matt, Kristian Calhoun, Morgan Gillespie, Jeff Rodriguez, and Adam Richards. But I defiantly plan to meet up with old friends too!

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Now that it seems we're going, I have to compile a real list.
Well.
Everyone who posted in this thread qualifies.
Karthik.
Copioli.
Andy Baker.
111, 1114, 67, 45, 148, and many other teams and their mentors.
More people than I'll ever be able to list.
This is gonna be fun.

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Wow! I'm on Guy Davidson's list of people he wants to meet! :p

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

hey guys, what about meeting people who don't post on CD. or don't have CD accounts... i think if you look hard enough, you might find some extraordinary people out there besides CD

i don't have a list, for this simple reason. I want to meet EVERYONE, i think if your looking for one or two people, you might pass by 100 different people who could be really cool that you don't notice because your busy trying to find someone on the list.

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

That might be quite a drive there. He's out of FIRST, trust me, if anyone would know it'd be me... and him. Yeah. Plus do you really want to meet him? Honestly, ask yourself that.

BTW, I'm boring, do you really want to meet me too? Paint dries quicker when I'm around so it doesn't have to deal with me.

I don't know about you guys, but I want to meet Tom Bottiglieri, he's sooooo dreamy! :o

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

I don't have a real list, mostly because I don't ussally have a lot of time on my hands. But i'll be at the webhug and on the field with the drive team so I hope to at least meet some people

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

I was sitting at the top of the stands in Philly, when Bethany led a mentor from Rolling Thunder up and introduced her as Cynette. I expected she had a question about our team, but instead she introduced herself as a "Chief Delphi Stalker", and I was one of the folks on her list. My wife was sitting next to me and laughed at me the rest of the day.

I also had the pleasure of meeting Barry Bonzack, and had an opportunity to talk with him as we drove in on Saturday.

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

I'd like to meet:

Joe Matt :D
Al Skierkiewicz
Andy Baker
Patti Cook
Rich Kressley
Kyle from Moe
Crebber
Chainsaw from 1086 :ahh:
Gabe Goldman
Mike Trelease
Alan Anderson
Jane Young
Mike O'Brien
Elgin Clock

and everyone else

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

That's not that far! :cool:

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

And of course, as I expected, I forgot about people. At the very least, I'd love to meet the Israeli teams in Atlanta. And everyone else who will be there.

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Well, I could have said I was Santa Claus - making my list and checking it twice! And it worked! I told a few of the kids I had a list and some like Bethany were determined that I find all of the people on their team that were on my list!

And I'm sure I was the nicest stalker anyone of you ever met! :rolleyes:

But Josh, I think for Atlanta, maybe you should make the list and I'll follow you around!

Re: Who I'd Like to Meet - 2008 Championship Edition
 

Looking at the fact, that I've been away from Robotics, Chiefdelphi and FIRST, in general, for last 8 months, I'm gonna be wandering around first two days catching up with some chat buddies and hunting down some good'ol friends.
Bottom line is
EVERYONE!!!
