The competition is this Sunday (7/21) in Corvallis, OR. Fighting starts
at 1pm.
It's part of a larger festival - daVinci Days - admission is $10.50.
I'll save you the time of going to mapquest - it's about 260 miles / 4.5 hours
from Seattle.
I have it from a "confidential source" that the winner of the last
competition - Derek Young (http://www.automatum.com/)
will not be entering a bot this time. This is a relief (his last bot -
Hozer'd was pretty nasty).
