A great many topics have been discussed on these forums over the years, and there is an enormous amount of accumulated knowledge and discussion stored in the forum archives. Although much of it may be known to the longer-term veterans, these topics are still new to some of the more recent additions to the FIRST community. The student-vs-mentor-construction debate is one such area. If it is a new topic to you, I would encourage you to read through the accumulated wisdom of prior threads on the topic, wherein you may find almost every point thoroughly discussed. If, after reviewing that material, you have a pertinent new point to add, we welcome it. Likewise, you may find that the core of your position has already been adequately covered in previous discussions, and further debate is not necessary (which will save all of us some time).

No wrong way to do pizza? You need to talk to my college roommate about that some time... *

* he seemed to take exception to the fact that the last time I cooked pizza I had forgotten to wipe out the oven after applying the EasyOff Oven Cleaner earlier in the day. He was muttering something about "lye doesn't make a good condiment" as he was being wheeled off to the infirmary.
