The Only Constant is Change

For those of you who didn't noticed Bill made two blogs today, and in the first one it seems there may be a clue to the game.

A quick wiki:
  • Nothing endures but change.
  • From Lives of the Philosophers by Diogenes Laertius
  • Variant translations:
  • There is nothing permanent except change.
  • The only constant is change.
  • Change is the only constant.
  • Change alone is unchanging.


Maybe the game will constantly change throughout the round?

Where's Dean

Good Morning Teams,

I know teams are starting to give serious thought to the 2010 season. Before you spend too much time planning and preparing, I want to remind everyone: don’t assume 2010 will be anything like 2009. I’ve already mentioned in this blog that we’re reevaluating everything from the kit of parts to the website. So, like Heraclitus said “the only constant is change”. (Well, what he actually said was in Greek, but that’s what he meant.)

Have you heard about the about the new Public Service Announcement Keanu Reeves filmed for us? The Marketing Department is encouraging TV stations across the country to play it, so if you see it in your area, let me know.

Our Kit of Parts Engineer and my Deputy Director are both at NI week with Dean this week. Dean will be giving the Thursday Keynote “Inspiring Present and Future Engineers to Innovate”. Kate and Frank will be connecting with Engineers from around the country promoting FIRST and recruiting support for FRC.

We received 433 responses to the Kit of Parts survey. Thank you to those of you who participated. We’re taking your input seriously.

157 days until the 2010 Kickoff
See you there!
