so yes, i support what dean said fully. he is right, and people will finally be able to see us after our event is nationally broad casted. hopefully, though, the broadcast will be on an easily accessible channel 
I dont only see the FIRST program at a critical mass, but at a point where popularity is about to arise.

Just to give a little evidence for the cost of war and give a little eye opener to people, go here to see the cost of war and where the money could have been spent.
Cost of War
Just using 1% of the money spent on the war, you could easily fund every single team, give them everything and the kitchen sink in a KOP, plus support many more teams. While I am not using this as a political discussion, it is quite amazing where money should be spent and where it actually is spent.
