Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
I have a pretty good one. I met a team member from team 1351 of Mitty High. Not too special, since were both Bay Area teams, right? Well, not really, since we were on a campus tour of MIT, clear across the country.
That's my random FIRSTee encounter. Mike C. |

Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
Was talking to a senior producer at the TV station in Toronto that I shoot for and was mentioning FIRST as a possible story/series idea etc etc, turns out his wife was in FIRST when she was in school, she is 29 now so she was I guess a FIRST FIRSTer? . It is a very small world.

Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
I see tons of FIRSTers at math circles/competitions/programs, but I guess that's not too odd...

Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
I happened to see a local FIRST team with their robot at the Plantation Relay for Life this weekend. Unfortunately, when I went over to ask about their robot and team, the whole team boo'd me as soon as they found out that I was from 108. Quite a shocker...

Re: Meeting FIRST People in odd places
My sister had a job interview at Comcast yesterday.
The guy interviewing her was from the Northeastern University team. That's 125, NU-TRONS, correct? |
