There is a free event next weekend, March 7-8 at the Jacob Javits Center. The FIRST Robotics Competition. It starts at 9AM both days. It's amazing to see high school Robotics teams competing against each while still displaying gracious professionalism. It for all ages, and not only for nerds, everyone has fun.
