 The robot competition is the most obvious, visible, and distilled-media-friendly part of the picture... We shouldn't be surprised that it's all that gets into the news coverage, when that coverage is managed by someone who isn't already well versed in what FIRST is trying to do. - Alan Anderson [more] |

Centennial Park is good about letting private groups use it; for the past three summers it has let radio stations hold concert series' there (a concert every friday night for as long as it"s warm enough outside.) Even if FIRST doesn"t organize anything for Centennial Park, 1127 (Lotus Robotics) will be playing ultimate frisbee there during lunch and everyone will be welcome to join.
About hotels, there were several new ones built for the 1996 Olympic Games and the Omni Hotel which was mentioned is currently being renovated so it will be in great condition for when all of the rest of you come to see Atlanta. The only thing I"m afraid of is having the pits on one of the lower floors of the Congress Center. Atlanta is hilly enough where the ground floor on of side of the GWCC is underground on the other side, but even if they don"t have it on the right level in 2004, by 2005 they"ll have had time to get all the issues worked out and know what to do differently. *Runs off screaming in joy at how many people can go to the Championships next year.*
