When you talk about FRC how many people ask about battle bots?

Although... these televised robotics events still aren't bad. Sure, the ignorance of the general public does tend to gripe us a lot, but accidentally watching Robot Wars as a small child pretty much set me on the path to robotics. Its the 'gateway drug' for robotics, if you want to make a terrible analogy. Over time, people will begin to understand FIRST and appreciate it more.

I hope so also but I don't think so as I see a decay in cultural so I think that understanding will be hard to come by
