But please take into account that each year, the GDC has to come up with a rule book that will spend the next three months being picked apart by 40,000 of the brightest, most creative minds on the planet. I think they do an outstanding job of it. |

Any mentor worthy of a WFFA would be delighted to see one of their fellow mentors receive the award. |

Teams that take care of the little things often have much less trouble with the big things! |

Dear Mr. Lavery,
Congratulations. For the fourth year running, you have successfully ruined my Christmas holiday with your untimely release of a most obfuscating, but no less tantalizing, hint. |

Welcome to FIRST, the place where you can be competitive in a team. Here people can learn more in one year of FIRST than in four years of high school. |

Could you post your code? It is hard to debug that which you cannot see... |

While FIRST's goal is to inspire young people, it will be much easier to do that if we also inspire all the older people as well. |

We only ask that, when able, you too help other teams as we have helped you. It is this mentality of passing it forward that makes teams and FIRST great. |

When is comes down to it, remember what FIRST is really about, it is about those students and helping to inspire them |

Exercise, eat properly, work hard, live hard, play hard, laugh hard, inspire people, solve problems.
And leave the world around you a little better place than you found it. |

there should be a continuous cascade of knowledge spilling over to the less experienced team members and and continuous upward flow of members gaining experience. |

Winning medals and awards, being on TV or in a magazine while cool doesn’t even begin to compare to the relationships I’ve developed working with a bunch of great students. |

FIRST is here to inspire you, to challenge you. Part of that process is giving you a task too hard, resources too little, people too many, time too short. |

Do not worry about the VEX camp versus FIRST camp issues. It is a huge marketplace. It is only about 4% penetrated. There is room for everyone. And competition is good for the consumer. |

Hey Don, if the [Woody Flowers] award doesn't impress the non-FIRST friends and family, just tell them you have your own "inter-web thread" - tell them you are like a Chuck Norris on the internet!!! |

However I did tell my wife I wanted to lose 20lbs of ugly fat quickly. She told me to cut off my head. Go figure. |

Just got our robot crate back. The FedEx driver told me he was watching the robotics competition online and asked how our team did. He knew about Team 27 and 469. We must be doing a great job in Michigan promoting FIRST if a FedEx driver watch FRC matches online and was excited talking about it. |

Question: How can you tell the difference between an engineer and a programmer?
Answer: You ask them to count. Engineers start counting from 1. Programmers start counting from 0. |

Don't be affraid of trying new things... Even if people say you are crazy, even if you get insulted, even if it involves a lot of time and money, try it. You can't know if it'll work or not if you didn't try it yet. |
