Our team only has 4, 3 white girls and one crazy PR girl we call "Isha", my conterpart during the competition. (Our team has two mascots, since I can no longer be the Lego Maniac I'm now the King Jester & she claimed the other side of the throne.) Seriously though, the girls on the New England teams seem braver than the guys and I wouldn't be suprised. Girls need to have a voice on a team. It lets you see things from all aspects. Well, enough said... does anybody know any of the teams in the Arizona Regional this year? My team's going there this year and it would be nice to meet some new people, not from the east coast.

yeah. i agree with you. not so much of the fact that i'm a girl but, i know some guys, in general, just tend to do without even thinking. as for the arizona regional, the teasm are: 38 Teams Attending
