I know this is a little bit off topic, but i wanted to say it.
When Dean came down to Indy last month for the EIC/EMCW Expo, I asked him if he could sign a blown up picture that I have on my bedroom wall from the 2001 Nationals when we won the Delphi Driving Technology award. Dean delightfully signed it and he said, "thank you". I stood there for a few seconds, shocked. I thought to myself that I should be the one thanking Dean for all he has done instead of him thanking me. I did then thank Dean then he went off to talk with some of the students from 461.
Most people arent going to realize the impact of FIRST until they graduate from HS and move on. I am just now beginning to see all the greatness. Thanks to everyone who has helped me.
