Re: If Dean Kamen's island had it's own US State quarter, what would be on it?
I'm going to say a wind turbine. After all, the island wouldn't be nearly as (in?)famous otherwise. (Yeah, we FIRSTers would still think it's cool...but we've got to establish the cool factor for everyone else. Lots of folks have islands with stuff on them. )

Everyone is missing the obvious. There would obviously be a Segway on the quarter possibly with the lighthouse or wind turbine in the background.

Just to add to that... how about a segway race track?...

I think Dean would go simple and put the FIRST logo.

Re: If Dean Kamen's island had it's own US State quarter, what would be on it?
I would say to have a segway on it and the FIRST logo of course! It is easy to put a segway on something and convert the wheel of the segway into the circle in the FIRST logo.

I would say put a big FIRST logo on it but also have something from each of the teams in the FIRST program!

How about a picture of his huge Navy?

(And when I say huge, I mean, that DUK boat he owns)
