Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
 
In conjunction with Engineers Without Borders team 612 is creating a system to remove indoor air pollution from simple fires in Honduran kitchens.

In order to do this we are using activated charcoal, solar panels and old, unused and recycled computer fans. We have already collected a bunch of extra fans from previous years kits and from students at our school and were hoping that the teams at Buckeye would be able to contribute more to this. We will have a box set up the regional to collect extra and unused fans if anyone is willing to give one or two away. We are willing to accept fans of every size and every type as we will burn through them in our prototyping phases. Thank a bunch!

Please PM me if you have any questions since we should keep this thread more about the regional than the computer fans that 612 needs. :D

I can now tell you that, YES, there are concrete plans for a Buckeye webcast. Stay tuned.

my bet is on 1731 and only because I've seen them personally in action. They were also gracious in giving us a single pneumatic solenoid, no questions asked. Everyone will see just how potent they are.
612 also.

I usually don't dine in that area of Downtown, but a quick Google Local search shows a few within walking distance, including fast food (Subway, Mr. Hero's), a deli, and a Rascal's House pizza parlor.

Also, I second the recommendation for The Winking Lizard. I've been there, food's good, the atmosphere is awesome.

Re: Buckeye 2008!!!
 
Fantastic job all Buckeye regional teams! It was a pleasure! :D

Shout out to our great alliance partners 1126, 1386, and 2048. Thank you all!

Also, a special note to finalist 1731: We love flashy things (bright yellow robots, large led displays, etc.) and we loved your innovative robo coach control concept. But, we have some suggestions. 1) Your robo coach needs to have a mirror ball mounted on a helmet on her head. 2) Also, she needs some kind of music producing device so she can just start up a dance party complete with lights and music wherever you all may roam... plus, I'm sure the camera guys would think it was GREAT! :D

Thanks to everyone for another fantastic Buckeye regional! We'll see you all in Atlanta! :D

Are you sure you aren't thinking of 1731? I'm pretty sure that's who had the set of giant colored flashlights.

The buckeye regional was great and was a really fun experience, especially being the only one I'll get to see this season.:(
Congrats to 1024, 1126, 1386, and 2048 on winning the buckeye regional, you made the elims very interesting.
Congrats to 1024 for the triple crown victory Midwest, Boiler Maker and now Buckeye.
and Congrats to 612 on winning the regional chairmans award.

<revelle> I don't mean to blow my teams own horn but, we also have gone triple crown(-ish) on another award this year. We have won three out of three Safety Awards, Midwest, Pittsburgh and Now Buckeye</taps>
