The term normal is relative to CADer side of me. When compared to the rest of society, there is no normal side of me. |

if you want FIRST people to sign a petition, July isn't the best time to do it. |

The only odd part about this competition is that rather than further convince me that I want to be an engineer, it did the converse... I want to be a teacher. |

I think there is much to be learned from working in teams, and team projects, but even more when you go out on your own some time for something you are truly passionate about. |

FIRST is an addiction but at least it is one of the healthiest addictions you can have (if you wear your safety goggles!). |

You pick the best person for the job whether they are black, white, asian, hispanic, female, or male; NOT so you 'look good' when they publish your team picture in the school paper, but because they can get the job done right, on time, with a passion. |

So much energy is wasted complaining (even in this thread) and belittling others (subtly in this thread). You need to engineer an attitude that encourages success through hard work before you engineer the robot. |

Remember that though we come from different backgrounds and x, y, z, we are all on each other's side. We want people to love STEM, and think FIRST is a great tool to fulfill that desire. |

The hardest resource to come by in FRC is the one you can't buy: a well-trained, experienced, well-intentioned, dedicated mentor. |

The championship event is a meta-game of inches. People will complain about unbalanced/unequal divisions, whether you think it's silly or not. |

Big scoop for everyone here:
All divisions are stacked with talented teams. It's like this is a really big event or something. |

Most of the people who fit the profile of long tenured FIRST mentor are either already on a team or locked up in an institution where they belong... |

I just want to see Aerial Assist again. Played on Lunacy regolith. With minibot poles. Which are on coopertition bridges. Is that too much to ask for? ;) - M. Lillis [more]
