Re: An ethical question

As a rookie student on a medium sized team that was a rookie only 5 or so years ago, I would like to throw in support for GP's question. To me it sounds like he's just trying to inspire his students, not question DEKA's advantages and or disadvantages in supporting a team. FIRST, in the one season I've been here, has made me go from wanted to focus on medicine to focusing on biomedical engineering (not that big of a jump, but still). I wouldn't have that inspiration if it wasn't for seeing my team at work and meeting the people who made it possible. Even if DEKA was another big name company with "access to FIRST", they are still here because their founder made the company, and he also made FIRST to inspire, not to document disadvantages and advantages between teams. I don't wish to offend anyone at all, this is just what I get out of GP's question. - Genia
