Re: Update #16

I wonder how many times GM, Ford, or Chrysler screwed up...

FIRST is just like any other organization, the larger it grow the more complex everything little thing becomes. All of the previously mentioned organizations have people being paid to take care such issues. FIRST is made up of volunteers , who have dedicated their time and resources to bring us what we have now. Please DO NOT bash the volunteers( most here are doing it indirectly in some way).

People were making a big deal about the radios but IFI came through didn't it?

One of our GM engineers told me that walking in one of their Tech Centers without safety glasses is a couple days suspension without pay! (Yes, we all wear glasses in the pits, but this shows you how serious GM is with safety with smart adults!)

FIRST has just gotten big enough were it has take some serious stands on some issues. Just like all the auto companies they have to learn form their mistakes. Are you always happy with all the decisions your Boss/Leader/President makes?

Some are seriously expecting FIRST to be perfect. Maybe they saw something in the first 3 or 4 regionals that they didn't like...Please just wait for an explanation.
