Re: VEX beats Tetrix and others in bid to develop a robotics competition for the TSA

Eric,
I do know that those VRC numbers are domestic (US only) as the total number of VRC teams worldwide is currently over 1,800. I can't speak to the other programs directly at this time. And, yes, there is unquantifiable overlap as you suggest/explain that makes Dave's percentage a "generous" estimate. I suppose all of that accentuates his point, doesn't it?
