Love what you wrote.
I'd just like to add that our team in the past treated newbies like dirt - they were supposed to do all the dirty work, like a hazing thing. We've changed that.
Our team in the past worked in two locations, it became an us vs them that was very volatile. We've changed that.
And to me part of the FIRST experience is getting students who don't have computers at home and wouldn't otherwise be getting this exposure interacting on the computer thru our forums, with the software, or other technology...
and less technical students discovering to their amazement that they can be working with machines...
