OOOOO Thank You amanda for the awesome shirt... im still wondering when ill get those emails.

[Chris Marra]

Why does the shirt say 216.173.227.141, when there's nothing there, even if InnovationFIRST, Vexlabs, Rack Solutions, and IFI are all at that IP?

Also, where was this? I didn't see any of these shirts all weekend.

[Alex Cormier]

I saw someone walking around in a "There's no place like 216.173.227.141" shirt, but I assumed it was a team shirt. I, too, am baffled by it's reference.

Here's why

[Rohith Surampudi]

yep they were free but you needed to add your email to an intellitek mailing list or somehing of that sort.

Oh yes, I am well familiar with "There's no place like 127.0.0.1" shirts. I've even seen a few "There's no place like ::1" shirts. But why the heck 216.173.227.141?

[anna~marie]

According to Terminal.app:

$ host 216.173.227.141
141.227.173.216.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer innovationfirst.com.
141.227.173.216.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer webmail.innovationfirst.com.

It was an IFI email sign-up actually. The intelitek booth just happened to be next to the signup sheet. It said that you could sign up to hear some updates about Vex, which I actually wanted so I used my real email.

We had a "Vex Interest" email list signup.
Everyone that signed up got a free t-shirt. Miss Morrison was helping us out running the Vex pit area on Thursday and Friday. The t-shirts were very popular, and I hope we can do something similar in the future.

I wanted a shirt that just said "Enginerd." on the front, but my idea got voted down.
