Thanks Ken. Just finished reading Dean's speech. I agree with Andy that this should be required reading for all who enter the FIRST Domain. In order for us to have a substantial impact on our culture we need to have a clear understanding of how we are to accomplish that mission. The truth in Dean's words is becoming apparent everyday that we read in the paper of jobs that are leaving the U.S. to some lower payed work force in another country. We are in great danger of losing the Technological edge America has always enjoyed. Through our direct and difficult effort, however, I believe we can ensure that America won't become a "Banana Republic". That is why I devote so much into this. Everytime we light a kid up inside and give that child a sense of purpose we have successfully changed the American culture.
