Heck Joe... if being on TV is all we need we can get a FIRST team on national TV easily... we just need something that passes for a scandel and we can get on the "Jerry Springer Show" no sweat.

FIRST probably doesn't appeal enough to the demolition derby mentality for destruction to draw a large audience. I like studying the designs of the battlebots robots, but I'd be surprised if that were the reason most people watch it. (Yes I watch it but I don't buy the sponsors products...)

There will be a PBS program following three teams that is scheduled to come out this September and with any luck it will be picked up by most of the PBS stations giving us some national coverage.

Best Wishes

Steve Alaniz
