Indeed.

Huston PBS Listing for Wits, Grits, and Robot Games (http://www.pbs.org/cgi-registry/whatson/template.cgir?s=KUHT&t=0&p=19151&c=d&d=2002-05-21)

As far as I can figure, it isn't a national PBS program, nor was it show here in Northern Virginia on WETA.
Anyone tape it?

PBS in our area just broadcast this program (Sunday, Sept. 1). Alas, no one saw it coming and we missed it.

However, it should be played nationally on directv and disk network on Sept. 29 at 3:30-4:30. That's according to the PBS program guide (www.pbs.org).

I just found a brief description of the program and it is so annoying that because the team numbers are so high that they think that there are over a thousand teams. There may be 1,000 schools involved but definitely not teams. :rolleyes:

Heres the site
