The Invasion
Many of you will note a conspicuous absence of frequent entries by yours truly, Monsieur Secretary-Treasurer, since my famous blogging poem. (Scroll down a bit to witness the awesome hypocrisy.) But now that we’ve reentered the off-season, the team has a few things to announce to the world.
Team 461, Westside Boiler Invasion, is back with a vengeance. We promise that you will see us invading our community, the FIRST community, and our number 1 target, planet Earth. We will not be invading with UFOs (although we wish we could…) or with hordes of aliens (although we imagine we are…). We are invading with the message of FIRST, the spread of science and technology.
Westside Boiler Invasion understands that to spread the message of FIRST, someone has to take initiative. This season, we will strive to make people understand how much science and technology have affected the world around them. We believe that, historically and currently, certain people like Dean Kamen and Woodie Flowers have taken the initiative to become “engineering invaders.” These invaders are who we strive to emulate in our daily lives.
These “invaders of innovation” are the models of how people can be motivated to advance humankind. Stay tuned for more info on a 461 attempt to chronicle the exploits of these invaders.
