Thanks for pointing this out. Its always good to see how FIRST is doing.

I noticed that Dean Kamen's contribution to FIRST went from $400,000 in 2002 to zero in 2003, even though FIRST seems to be running an operating loss of $165,000. Makes you wonder if Dean is having some financial problems. I wonder how badly the Segway fiasco seems to have hurt him. In the Time article about his Water Purifier he said "I have no credibility" (http://www.time.com/time/2003/inventions/invwater.html) Poor guy. At least he's back to inventing stuff that can really change the world.
I also seen that. Really makes you think... I personally think Dean has done enough already, without him....well you know.
