No bitterness taken, Jess, I still love ya.

But the fact is is that most of what you said is right. I am just here to prove my point in our case.

Most databases that are made are constructed by a group of student (or just one). That's all wonderful and peachy, but that doesn't leave much of an opening for opinions from the rest of us here in different parts of the country, now does it?

The fact is that some databases will shine above the rest this year. The only ones I recall from last year (that were AWARD WINNING, literally) were SOAP and GMCIA. SOAP was developed by team 108 (very publicized at nationals- congrats), and I highly recommend it. However, I do not have as much experience with that as I do GMCIA.

GMCIA is a database system that is ran by two teams, team 65 and 66, both sponsored by divisions of GM Powertrain. (Willow Run and Pontiac). One segment was began by engineers and students collaborating at GM Powertrain from team 65, and one with students and a college advisor ( HI NATE!!) from team 66. Their efforts paid off greatly and team 65 was even awarded a Team Spirit award at Motorola Midwest and the Indiana Robotics Invitational for offering their database services to the masses at the regionals. They had their software and hardware all set up and organized the right way and they got things done.
This system has officially made its mark, and this will be its second year (I believe) in full operation. Our database system is complete and we even have Palm-components (ThinkDB-for mobile scouting). Now all we need is everyone's (who is interested) opinions on some terms so that we know how to organize the data.
We are reliable, experienced, user-friendly, and we welcome everybody who wants mutual help in their scouting efforts. This will greatly depleat the work needed to be done for scouting on your team- work that could be used in other areas!
We are getting the job done, now it's up to you to hop on the bandwagon.
Nate- if you have anything to add, please feel free to add whatever you would like.
E-mail me for more information.

I want to hear from everyone who is interested and all opinions are welcome!!

-Erin, Team 65 "The Huskie Brigade"
