Re: Is FIRST about Robot?

Please come work long hours learning Math, Engineering, Sales, Marketing, Communications, Publishing, Logistics for no school credit, in fact you'll need to work harder on your regular school work to compensate.

Anyone want to come? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Lets build a big robot that weighs 100 lbs with lots of motors and gears and metal that we can cut and drill and a ton of programming. The we will go compete with that robot with other teams.

How about now? Who wants to build a robot?

It's all about how you hide all of the good stuff in something nice. Like Mom blending a carrot in a chocolate milkshake to get vegetables in the diet. If you want to think it's about the robot, I'm good with that. But please have this nice helping of real world engineering, life skills and having some of the best fun of your life.
