Yea... the classes at our school seem to get more and more snobbish/anti-FIRST as they go... :::cries:::

I would rather be in FIRST and regarded as a 'nerd' or whatever than get a ton of recognition from my classmates for being the star of a sports team. I understand that FIRST is for me and sports are for others - too bad the converse is rarely understood.

(Then of course there are the cool people that belong to both sports teams AND FIRST!!)
