Re: 2006 St. Louis Regional
Congratulations also to finalists 1288, 16, 1873. 1288 Francis Howell Schools is one of our local favorites: they were the second highest seeded local team at St. Louis this year, and won both the Website Award and a Judges' Award. The Bomb Squad displayed their usual exemplary GP in ways too numerous to list here, and were awesome competitors as well. 1873 was especially impressive on both ends of the field; many of us enjoyed watching the rookies go after the Beast and accomplish what few other teams could -- slowing them down for a while!
Congrats also to 1444 Lutheran South for another strong competitive showing as #3 seed and semifinalist, the highest among local teams in our region, and on the Sportsmanship Award. And thanks especially for picking my team as a tournament alliance partner!
And special congratulations to Mr. Frank Dressel, founding teacher-coach of team 931 Perpetual Chaos, and the 2006 St. Louis Regional Woody Flowers Award finalist.
I'd also like to tell everyone on CD that I am very proud of my team, 931, winners of the 2006 St. Louis Regional Engineering Inspiration Award!

I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.
