But I predict we will have 910 or less teams actually compete in at least one event this year.

Code:

Year     Total         % Gain%
1992      28
1993      25         -10.7%
...
2000     373          38.7%
2003     787          17.5%
2004     910          15.6%
2005    1030          13.2%

Sorry for bringing up this old topic, but I was just amazed at the difference in prediction vs. reality. FIRST isn't dying yet.
