This is what I love about engineers and why I have spent my career (so far) pursuing faith's perfection as an engineer. Engineers crave and demand facts, and won't reach a conclusion without them.
It is a safe bet that FIRST has gotten an earful of our concerns on this subject. I hope we will hear more from FIRST aimed at resolving our concerns, and soon.

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.

A wise man told me a few nights ago, that it is important to own up to all your mistakes, so that others can see you doing that and wont deny and try to hide their own. - Josh Hambright [more]
