Re: Meeting people at nationals
A lot of people are shy, Chris.

I'm very shy and can clam up just like that. But I feel very comfortable in the FIRST community at the Championship, even when I'm clammed up and can't converse too much.

One thing that I love to do is visit the pits. In the pits, there will be people working and there will be opportunities to meet people and to talk with them. I've found that they do most of the talking, excited about sharing information about their team or their robot.

Good luck with this, hope to see you in Atlanta.

Jane
