We encourage teams that have an interest in playing at the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional to register now so that we can plan for a "Double Regional". Teams will be notified in mid-November when there is a final decision made as to whether or not FIRST will be conducting the 2008 FRC Connecticut Regional as a single or double event.

This seems like a really good idea for an area like New England, where many teams are within a relatively short driving distance of the same venue.
Today there are 28 teams registered -- not enough to split the event. In about a week that should change.

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.
