Re: FIRST Founders

No. (look here)

Dr. Woodie Flowers coined the term Gracious Professionalism, and he exemplifies it. He is the chairman of FIRST's executive advisory board, and is usually introduced by the title "FIRST National Advisor". And he is the inspiration for the award that bears his name.

All of us who volunteer, mentor, sponsor, and otherwise encourage the students who participate in FIRST have this in common: we wanna be like Woodie.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
