Rich is right. This was a landmark event for FIRST. Garnering this type of attention can only strengthen our program, not just in the United States, but globally. I know that once our Canadian politicians see the attention FIRST received at the White House, they'll be much more likely to support our efforts in Canada.
Congratulations to all the teams who made this possible, and took the time to spread the word of FIRST.
