If you really think about it, the $6 thousand dollars of reg. is almost nothing for what get in the K.O.P. Have you ever been on the side of BUYING 10seats(is it 10?) of Inventor, to my knowage it is alot more than $6grand, and thats only one thing.

As far as the regional goes, I have heard from multiple sources that FIRST runs their own production crew to do these, that in its self cost WAY more than you can ever image(cough...Pipe and Drape...cough), I can see them keeping little more money in the bank to keep in mind that if some one would want to make a regional they would have the money to purchase everything for it. Soooo....if you think about the amount it takes to run a show like that for three days the cost just goes out the roof. Thats why you don't see every regional being runned like the boston regional(who--ah....big screens).
