I think that Christopher Reeve would be a great spokesman too. But on the other hand we have a kid on our team nicknamed Britney does that count???

I think that christopher reeve should be the spokes person. as for the Simpson's thing that would be a great idea b/c not alot of people i know dont know what robotics is and if they did a epssode on the simpsons they would know about FIRST.

James Doohan. You may know him better as 'Scotty' of Star Trek fame.
Come on, the greatest engineer of the 24th century, who can top that? Ok, so maybe that wouldn't appeal to much to the general public. But still, he is Scotty. -Andy A. |

Good question, John. A lot of FIRSTers are passionate when it comes to how the program is projected to the rest of the world.
The celebrity that FIRST uses to endorse the program (keep in mind that this is all my opinion only) would not necessarily be a 'celebrity' in the types of Brad Pitt and such, but instead someone who is famous for being an activist, a scholar, etc. Unfortunately, the Curie's keeled over and Newton and Einstein did too, but there are still people throughout the world making technological, scientific, and mathematical advancements that sometimes end up having a breakthrough, and BAM - the whole world is focused on that person. That's why we need an activist, a leader, someone who is passionate about FIRST to go about and just let everyone know about the program. I once thought a cool job would be to be a 'motivational speaker' for FIRST, doing nothing but driving from high school to high school and holding assemblies and such to let kids know about this program. Needless to say, once I got into the real world, I realized that this wouldn't be a cool job, it would be a dream job. I'm not the best at public speaking, but think about it - someone from FIRST who has had great life-changing experiences through the program goes out and tells middle- and high-school kids all about the greatness of FIRST and what it does for our schools, our youth, and our country. Get the president to say something about it. That person will go from FIRSTer to celebrity status in no time. That's all it takes. But it's a big task, and someone has rise up to the challenge and do it. That's what it will take. p.s. - Greg, please don't reply three thousand times to a thread...especially to your own post. The 'edit' button is a useful tool. Thank you. ![]() |
