I believe in intuition and inspiration. Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution. It is, strictly speaking, a real factor in scientific research.

Oh ya, totally agree. Scouting was super important this year. Not only important for alliance selection, but it was also helpful for us on the drive team to pic defenses for every match. Thank god for the scouting team this year.

I found the duck tape.

(Our robot was held together by duck tape towards the end, and then of course there was Wilsonville semifinal #4)

Or maybe, WHOOPS! I broke it!
