I just found out my project was selected to be one of the prizewinners in this round.

Wow! I am humbled by the other winners and proud to be included with them. There were many awesome projects that were not selected, as well. I hope that these people will not get discouraged. Hang in there and make your project better and better!

I hope that this recognition will bring more "lookers" who may be interested in working together with me to create networked seismic noise monitoring systems in seismically active regions.

This thousand dollars is going to be given to Doctors Without Borders because of their fantastic record of dealing with earthquake emergencies.

Thanks!
