Funny, I had the exact opposite thought. Reading the old posts, I was amazed at how many people were dead on with their predictions.

No one was claiming that FIRST was dying, people were just trying to determine where an equilibrium point may occur.

Re: How big will FIRST ever get?
I don't think has reached saturation, just that the economy has slowed down, and the businesses that support new and old teams are cutting back spending, or disappearing. So I guess there would be fewer team growth. Death isn't through shrinking, but through ideological failure.
