Question Skills USA

Just wondering if anyone here has heard of/participates in the Skills competition.
It is an all-inclusive competition with roughly 100 different competitions from custodial work to integrated circuit design. My school is not as deeply involved with it as others in the area [one school had almost every student go] but I went to the Ohio skills competition this past weekend and talked to quite a few robotic-arm competitors about FIRST robotics and only one person heard about it. Being a competition including robotics, electronics, machining, and design, i would have thought more would be at the very least knowledgeable. Being that those i talked to weren't, i thought i'd ask if anybody here has heard of Skills/participated. have ye?
If not, i for one think these competitions <--by the way, they are competitions, competitor interaction was grounds for being kicked out when i went --> would be an excellent way to sell FIRST, and its coopertition =)


[edit] i believe this is part of what the builder of the scorebot+conveyor is doing so for, if not this edit is pointless =)
