Re: What's happening to this program???
While I may seem like a driving optimist, I will tell you that for everyone of those people that wants to rip off pneumatics or cheat in the game, there are hundreds of well-spirited ambitious teenagers and mentors who care about this program and don't do the things that you mention.

When you enter any program, athletic, academic, scientific or otherwise, there will be conflicts. FIRST isn't a perfect universe, it's not a mecca for perfectly sportsmanlike people. It's a community, and in order for the program to last there have to be problems to understand how to fix them.

I guess I'm feeling upset because of the amount of berating going on the past few weeks against some ref or some award winner, because it reflects negatively on those who want to maintain a positive attitude and influence.

Here is the solution: (edit: at least) 12 hugs a day
