: Perhaps we won't have to drive 10 hours to go to a regional too far away because we got shut out of the one 5 hours away because they took it out of ManchVegas.

All you New Englander's ever do is complain...
Let's hear it from all the people down here in Texas...where the CLOSEST regional being held was more than 15 hours (depending on where you are...more or less...) but you get the idea...
When Houston was cancelled (btw...i'm assuming/hoping NASA is planning on doing a regional in Houston again next year...) most of us were up a creek...as it is in Texas anywhere you put it is gonna be a trip for some people (but i'm near houston...so i vote leave it at NASA...

so please NASA...if you're out there...hold a regional in Houston even if we only have 15 teams willing to come...we're too poor to go anywhere else
Ahh...sorry...just my personal little gripe about regionals...i'll shut up now...
