Re: Who would you like to see speak at a FIRST event?
I have to agree that my favorite idea so far is the mythbusters (Jamie or Adam) are my favorite listed so far... but there are lots of good ideas. In addition I would like to see someone from the business world... someone like Donald Trump to talk about how FIRST is NOT just engineering. All of our teams run like mini businesses... so I think its important to start showing the kids the business sides.

Also, maybe a female engineer, scientist or astronaut... I havent seen a lot of female speakers in my time in FIRST (not to say there havent been any, but comparatively few at the events that I have been at).

Excellence - is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible.
