In marketing it's called "creating a buzz" and FIRST has historically been very good at doing that, at least among the frenzied few true belivers. Most of whom frequent this site.

So that MIGHT be exactly what they are doing. The Quadratic Equation is just so darn useful, it could be applied to just about anything. Hence my reluctance to plunge single handedly into building a targeting system for the EDUbot in the next two weeks.
