Please vote!

Please vote for Strider’s video!  He and his teammates have entered the ReelMath video contest.  The assignment was to do a short story about a math problem, which doesn’t sound all that thrilling, but I think they did a good job trying to make it entertaining.  (You can get a quick glimpse of the problem* they did in the book Strider is reading towards the beginning of the video)  They put a LOT of work into this production, including making ALL of those little blocks! 

Here is the link:

There are some nice prizes at stake… but first they have to get through this “popular” round of voting.  For those of you who are either compulsive or bored, you can vote every day for the next 2 and a half months.  (It’s going to be a loooong 75 days around here.)
The good news is you don’t have to log in or register or create a password or anything!  Just keep clicking “Like.”  J

Strider thanks you!


*Here's the problem:  What is the maximum number of  1" x 1"x 3" blocks that will fit into a box with interior dimensions of 5" x 5" x 10"?
(Answer:  83)
