Hope all of you pursuing it can get additional support.
Seems like now is not a good time for many States, including ours actually.

Our governor is making a huge announcement today on how she is going to cut 184 million from all State depts, including the DOE. That's a lot for a small State and in addition to what has already been cut.
All of our C&C services/fees/taxes are skyrocketing. Schools are going to be hit with price hikes in lunches, bus fares, etc.
Tourism in Hawaii has hit an all-time low since its been documented in 1987.

I personally hate the whole federal stimulus package bailout as it just sinks us deeper in debt. However, if they're going to give it out, why not get as much as we can for education purposes?

Dave,
thanks for the compliment. We certainly are looking to help more teams in whatever ways we can. We cant pay for other team's costs directly, but we certainly can lend materials, tooling, and space for teams to build their robots.
Here is a link to what we got, on page 192.
