Ed, I assume we will see you at Kettering?

Kettering does have a tendency to have quite a few teams show up on Saturday that are not actually competing in the event. (ie. 27, 67, 217, 1718, 2834)

But then again, I have a tendency to go to a Michigan event every weekend just to check out the competition and robots.
