First of all, I want to send a big shout out to our allience partners (192 & 457) and team 34's Houston Comp Crew for an awsome job. The first thing conveyed to "Home Base" from the Rocket City Robotics Crew was how wonderful everyone cooperated with each other and worked as a team.

I watched from home via the webcast and was amazed by all of the good machines. I was especially impressed with team 16 and hoped that somehow we could be allied with them. I almost passed out when it came time to compete against them.

Congradulations to ALL the teams at Houston for what looked to me to be a great event.

See 'ya at St. Louis !!!
