Believe me, the 6-hour ride home was a mix of adrenaline and exhaustion. Personally, I'm just glad we've joined the banner-having-teams club. It's just beginning to set in, so it's a bit electric here at school. Chairman's is of course amazing, and it's quite thrilling to be home to a Woodie Flower's award-winning mentor.

Though our robot didn't do well statistically, we did discover we had the third-highest ranking points of any team, and the first two were in the top eight - something of which we can be quite proud.

Thanks for the compliments - OKC and Atlanta are going to be exciting!

A mathmatician, a physicist, and an engineer were all given a red rubber ball and told to find the volume.
The mathmatician carefully measured the diameter and evaluated a triple integral.
The physicist filled a beaker with water, put the ball in the water, and measured the total displacement.
The engineer looked up the model and serial numbers in his red-rubber-ball table.
