There has been a lot of talk in the rumor mill about what IT/ginger will be. Regardless of what IT is, there will be a lot of media attention brought to Dean Kamen over the next week. If it is something of major significance to the future of the world, then there will likely be a lot of interest into Kamen himself. I wonder if this would also bring attention to FIRST... Might people and the media start to get what FIRST is all about? Perhaps not, but it will be interesting to see how FIRST fits in with all this over the next couple months. Will Kamen try and use this opportunity to talk to media about FIRST? How do you all think FIRST will be influenced by the revealation of IT? I definately don't see anything bad coming out of it.
