Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
I had a couple unlikely FIRST encounters over my summer vacation this year.

The first was at a pageant in upstate NY that my church puts on each year that my family was involved with. There was a cast of more than 600, so I obviously didn't know everyone there. As I was standing in the lunch line one day, I noticed that a kid in front of me had a FIRST shirt on - some 500s number I think. I talked to him for a little bit, it was pretty cool.

The second one was possibly even less likely. I was at an activity with my boy scout troop at a remote cabin in the mountains of Idaho that one of our leaders owns. The uncle and cousin of a different one of my leaders just happened to live in the area, and came up for shooting and motorcycling a couple of days. Turns out the cousin was a member of team 1839. I probably saw him at some point in Portland, but I didn't recognize him.
