Your students are already doing a great marketing job: Jake and Adam spent about a half hour at the Philly Party convincing me that your robot could team with ours to win the tournament, conquer the Eastern seaboard, and be well under way toward world domination by Easter; however, we were selected by another class team, Black&Decker, and we are a team that just can't say 'no'; now, I guess everybody is...



: Joe,

: High praise indeed from one of the Elders of the Ozone.

: Thanks also to Colleen, Jon and Andy for their accolades. When you stop to think about it, it's amazing how many class acts there are out there.

: Realizing the need to market your product was a lesson learned from the regionals. Understanding that, our team has really tried to step up to the challenge.

: I, also, think that Adam (Jake, et al) did a fantastic job. It warms the soul to give the students a task and see a quality product emerge without adult supervision.

: See y’all next week
