Re: Dean Kamen's Homework 2008

Great work getting all those contacts, but this may fit better in the FIRST Q&A Forum where the homework is located. You can repost it there and cooperate with the other teams in your area to contact the media.

Thanks for the heads up and advice.

We posted in both places. We have a veteran mentor who has moved here from the St. Louis area who made the recommendation of posting in both places
