It's an honor to have been a part of the book; however, the thing I realized most while I was reading it (started at 2 am last night and finished it in a sitting) was how much I miss FIRST. Honestly, nothing has quite compared to the experience yet (enjoy it while you can!), and I really hope that I'll be able to mentor or get involved otherwise in a few years! Also, in case anyone was wondering, the events in the book were unbelievably realistic. I couldn't help but burst out in laughter when seeing utterly inane quotes from some of my teammates .
@Neal: The book turned out so well. I hadn't read any of your other works, and was surprised at how accurately and enjoyably the story was told. As I said, I read it in one sitting!

Order the book! It's a really fun read, and the there are so many things about build and competition that remind you how awesome the FIRST community really is.
