I agree. He's the FIRST person most out there right now.

Re: Time's 'Person of the Year'
It has to be DEAN! Woodie, errr. maybe! But I would steal him and make him a professor for one of my ENES courses in a heartbeat first.

Dave? Maybe he needs to just conduct kickoff from the International Space Station!

Re: Time's 'Person of the Year'
I really would have to say Dean. He's made great strides in technology, not the least of which being FIRST, among other things. If only I could find a video camera...

Re: Time's 'Person of the Year'
Seriously if one of them was nominated and the whole FIRST community backed them they would almost have to win good idea!

Re: Time's 'Person of the Year'
I'm not trying to burst anyone's bubble, but does Dean Kamen really fit their definition?:

"The person or persons who have, for better or worse, most influenced the news during the past year."

I believe Dean and Woodie deserve their credit, but I don't think it makes sense to nominate either of them for this award. Dean was on the Colbert Report a couple weeks ago... but other than that I don't think Dean, Woodie, or FIRST have been in the news (let alone influenced the news) very much at all over the past year.

Definition aside, that isn't to say I wouldn't *like* to see Dean win it .
