Re: Dave Lavery at RadioShack
I saw this as well. Went to radio shack and my dad said "Hey look, your buddy is on TV." I stopped and watch for a while. Last year I went to a radioshack in Oklahoma and saw some video of the Vex bots from Atlanta and talking about the Vex Challenge. I was pretty stunned, because I was working on starting an FRC team in this town, and there was FIRST in the Georgia Dome right in the local radioshack.
So Radioshack is backing down, and IFI is picking up the ball, which is very good. But this was an excellent way to help get the FIRST name out to many people looking at electronics.
