Russian Teams in FIRST!!!

[Ian W.]

ok, come on, let's not go into bickering about the past. this was about whether or not russian teams would make FIRST better. answer, yes. going off topic, german teams in FIRST, that's even cooler (added on with the russian teams). heck, if every country had a FIRST team, how cool would that be? dean's wish would have come true, and we would have changed the world. for better or worse, i have no idea, but think about it. if FIRST spreads enoough, it might become a major thing in the world. that would be really cool.

to get to all of that though, we need one thing. for FIRST to spread beyond america, specifically beyond north america, cause the canadians are getting into it now. true, we have brazillians, and britians, but that's only two countries. we need teams all over the world, and only then will FIRST truely have become a culture. besides, how cool would it be to go to nats, and meet kids from everywhere around the world? heh, you could even make a social studies project out of going to nats . i personally would love to meet kids from around the world.

ok, i'm rambling on here, but you get the point. stop bickering about whose nation is better than whose, and think in the big picture. maybe if there's FIRST teams around the world, it could help lead to world peace. hey, you never know.
