Re: FIRST in the June IBEW Journal

This is a high-quality article; it is well written and it speaks effectively about core FIRST values. Congratulations, Al. The IBEW Journal staff clearly gets FIRST, and it's pretty clear who gave them the message.

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.

Re: FIRST in the June IBEW Journal

I think this is the only article of many that really gives FIRST the credit it's due. Other articles posted are a bit -- belittling, and always come off as just some high schoolers, as to this one, which shows a relationship between the mentors/engineers/students, and shows that the program is serious, and not a dilly-dally.

Great article.

Re: FIRST in the June IBEW Journal

Hey wow, that's really neat.

Our local IBEW sponsors us .

There's a funny story behind that in we one day just happened to walk into their post as they were having a Board Meeting, and the rest is well...history.
They're a nice group of people, and this is an awesome article!
