There will certainly be many, many Segways in Atlanta all around the Georgia Dome and GWCC during the FIRST Robotics Championship weekend (April 15-17). I think we should try to organize a group glide. I would be glad to act as "point of contact" for organizing this event (but I will need some help defining a "tour route"). Please post here and/or email me to indicate your interest and availability. It will be a busy weekend for all FIRST participants, so it could be difficult to find a time convenient for everyone. Your suggestions are welcome!!

“Who goes out and says, ‘You have a better probability of winning the state lottery than making a nickel in professional sports. And by the way, last year two million exciting technical jobs went unfilled in this country because you weren't there to take that job. And it pays you 10 times as much as flipping burgers, and it's fun and it's exciting and you get to create things and build things and help make the world a better place and help make yourself a better living.’ Who tells them this?”
