71 has fans on its drive modules. They were drafted first at St. Louis last week, and that alliance (16, 71, 1706) won the regional. I wasn't close enough to see if their fans were on, but I do know they pinned 931 solidly against the endwall in SF1-2 while unloading a hopper-full to put that match out of reach.

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.
