I just don't believe it. Again, it's a question of money and someone's influence over people who have it. I say we take care of the teams we got now, and the rest will fall into place.

I think the scientist thing is handled; the Vex field was called Da Vinci.
FIRST
can add another division in Atlanta. They would do so at the expense of FLL and/or Vex. You've got the channels (five fields with six robots is 30 channels, which is less than the 34 that users can't get to on their own), and there's space in the pits--if you move out Vex or FLL (or cut into the space of the site of the Vex social, which was a space this side of ginormous).
However, you've then got the question of how to resolve that fifth division when it comes to picking a champion. If someone can come up with a fair and equitable way of doing that, I'd love to hear it.
