I've got grey hair. When the whining starts, I've noticed it's as likely to come from mentors as from kids. Music at events is a good way to drown all that out -- I say crank it!

I'll buy Billfred's arguments #2, #3, and #4 on this one. Also, I like NL's "Aim High" precisely because I don't think it will stand up over time (i.e., it will start to sound dated after a couple of years) -- that will motivate someone to write a new anthem.

Fresh material is one of the keys to sustaining FIRST. That's the reason we need a new game, new rules, new KOP elements, new teams, etc. every year.

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
