I wish my area had some way of getting us/ informing us of a science fair, I would have used my SNESp. I did get to use it for my engineering project(98%

), so not only did I get an awesome grade, but my parents paid for all the parts(i paid for some tools however, only 20-30 bux) because it was for school

.

Gosh, I never knew that the science fair was as basic as electronics... I wish there was one at my school.

Awesome job, nonetheless.

But just think of all the things you can do with $500!

Hah... 3M is a chemical producing company that makes adhesives and other things. It makes the adhesive on Scotch tape and post-it notes. And goodness sakes, there is a famous building in downtown St. Paul/Minneapolis, can't remember which, that lights up every Christmas so that the lights in each room form the shape of a Christmas tree. The building is owned by 3M, and has a huge 3M sign outside. I've only been there once and I still remember that thing...

But anyways, congrats on your science fair! I once placed third in a science fair when I did something on parachutes. And I got an award from NASA. No money though...

Congrats again!
