Re: Question of the Week!!! (7/19/04)

Alright, I know I've answered this question already, but I'm going to put in an honorable mention.

On Thursday at the Championship, I was working on Archimedes doing real-time scoring. My mother was on Newton doing team crowd control. (If you were on a drive team, you probably met her and didn't know it.)

So in the afternoon, these three African-American kids come down to the very edge of the stands and get her attention...

I guess that also kinda influenced me in a way. I mean, if we're drawing attention from kids (they couldn't have been older than second or third grade), then I guess we are inspiring, eh?
