btw, this data is very interesting.
How about major judged awards/competitions (at nationals... no regionals) won per state? I bet that would jumble things up quite a bit (knowing hammond would add a bunch)

I was only counting teams that are actually registered for a 2007 FRC event, so the Indiana count really is 20 teams as of this morning. However, this could and probably will change very soon.
South Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Florida have all registered more teams since my last update. And somehow I left out Maryland.
As suggested earlier, I will recalculate based on registration totals as of late tonight, just before 2nd regional registration opens.
BTW, total registration as of this writing is 951 teams, up nine from yesterday afternoon. 902 of these are based in the US, and a recent news item noted that the US population has passed the 300 million mark. So the US average is about three teams per million residents.
And we also reached a milestone this morning; team numbers have reached the 2100 mark with the addition of a rookie team from Port St. Lucie, FL.

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.
