Re: FIRST Ribbons?

Well, the AFJROTC variety are $0.50 for a ribbon, and a dime for a cluster. Given the fact that that's a bigger market, I'd imagine a FIRST ribbon would cost a smidge more. (And, if you were wondering, the ribbon bar to mount 'em on was $2 or $3--can't remember which).

So I guess it would be a pain to get ribbons for individual team members, unless you had a biiiiiiig stack in the pits and were able to work out an easy system of doing it. Personally, I think that a team (or teams) could handle the task, if we could all put a standard out. Next thing you know, they'll have massive internet communites just for FIRST! (ex post facto dry wit alert)

I'm going to sketch out some designs and attach them in a few...lemme know what you think.
