Yup, what can I say, this was a great year for FIRST robotics at Planet PTC!!

Let's keep the conversation going folks!

Wow Josh! I totally missed this!

Congratulations on Best Overall Presentation! That's amazing. It was a real pleasure to meet you. Thank you for bailing me out, too! I really admire your dedication to the FIRST teams. I've already started talking with NASA colleagues about sponsoring a new team at my daughter's Math/Science Charter School. I think it'll be a good fit. I'm sure I'll be writing to seek your advice as I wind along the process.

Thanks and again, congratulations!!

LOL! Thanks Brian!

You do so much for the community, it was an honor to lend a hand! Wish I could have hung around for more of your presentation, the pieces I were able to catch were fantastic! It was obviously from the crowd that you were quite a hit!

Just let me know if there's anything I can do to help you guys get FIRST up and running out there.

By the way, the video that everybody seemed to get a kick out of is here http://youtu.be/HTSjoW_kmKw

Talk to you soon!
