Joe,
Thanks for some sanity. You are 100% correct. We don't always like other people's opinions. However it is important that they are all heard. The ones we don't agree with are just as valid as our own...and sometimes they are the ones we need to consider with the most attention.
I think FIRST means many different things to many different people. For some, like Kate and Lora, it is a way of life and it is about finding ways to exmplify gracious professionalism both within FIRST and thier lives. For others like myself and Marc it is a competition it's about building the best machine and competing the best. There are really two camps I think, those who view the primary purpose of FIRST to educate and inspire kids, and those who view the education and inspiration as a by-product of the competition that FIRST is.
Thank you Joe for reminding us that everyone should have a right to be heard.
-Justin
