The contest said to "Innovate or Die" – and Team Aquaduct
lives! In fact, the San Bruno, California team – consisting of John
Lai, Adam Mack, Brian Mason, Eleanor Morgan, Paul Silberschatz – is
living in grand (prize) style today after winning the href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2007/09/pour-on-pedal-power.html" >
first Innovate or Die Pedal-Powered Machine contest.

Team Aquaduct was declared the winner out of 102 entries by
building a unique and functional solution to provide rural
communities with access to clean water. The quintet will share the
$5,000 grand prize, and each will receive a Specialized Globe
bicycle – as will all five of the finalist runners-up ( href="http://www.innovate-or-die.com/" >read more about all the

develop ingenious solutions surrounding climate change. Many
original and inspiring ideas emerged; make sure to visit the href="http://www.youtube.com/groups_videos?name=innovateordie" >YouTube
