Maybe I'm just the sour apple of the group, but I don't really find Steven Colbert that funny; I could stand him when he was on the Daily Show and would do segments. I thought he mocked the message that Dean was trying to portray, and Dean was just quick with the comebacks. I don't know, maybe it's just I've never seen Mr. Kamen in a humorous role before, and this was a little startling. I mean Colbert's comments (albeit in humor) were borerline rude. Like "We could put a hemi in this thing" "Do the students build combat robots?" and then the whole thing about the mexicans was a little politically incorrect.
However even with the comments, Dean did a pretty good job explaining FIRST and his inventions.
Just my own $.02..
Let the bad rep start flowing.
