So what? The argument that the FRC culture needs to cling to the founders' original intent gets weaker every year. A generation has gone by since then! As participants in this program, we have the privilege of defining and redefining the culture as we see fit. Please remember Dean's speech at the 2013 championship where he expressed deep regret about the program still being a "best kept secret" and called for urgent and fundamental changes to the program. "If it's really that good... and if it's having the kind of impact on all of you that I know it is... the numbers should be bigger!"
