jasoni is an unknown quantity at this point
There are no seminars on Saturday. It's a team-hosted regional, so it's competition all day. I don't know how the timing will work out, so I can't say for sure if things will still be going on at 3, but it's a possibility.

While I can't recommend BASF as a team sponsor for selfish reasons, there are quite a few other corporations worth visiting in the area, GPU and Lucent come to mind. We've actually been able to raise decent funding from a multitude of different sources. Many local companies are more than willing to donate smaller amounts, but when they add up, you have a considerable pot.

5 years ago, before I was a member of Team 11, they had 1 BASF engineer. He quit the team before ship-date. No other BASF engineers have volunteered since. Our engineering staff consists of myself, a co-worker of mine (neither from BASF), one parent who is a professor at CCM, and one parent who is an electrical engineer. That's our "staff".

I noticed from the team list on the FIRST website that Warren Hills RHS no longer has a team. Do you know anything about that? Or maybe I'm just missing something.
