I want to remind everyone that it's also important to look at how many members are actually actively paying dues. We don't want a situation where we have an influx of 50 members, move, and then only 10 of them actually pay dues. I think people should definitely follow the "excellence" creed, but we also don't want to be stuck on a lease we can't afford.<br>

A friend of mine just emailed, enthusiastically letting me know that<br>
his company was moving in above noisebridge. The bad news is that 83A<br>
is apparently rented out, but the good news is that we have great new<br>
neighbors, who think we're great and want some involvement with us.<br>
They're awesome people to boot.<br>
<br>
And, of course, my friends feel a little bad, since they didn't know<br>
we were looking to expand, and sniped our space inadvertantly: "If<br>
we'd known before we signed the lease, we would have at least colluded<br>
with you :)".<br>
<br>
The moral of this story is: get all your friends to be members instead<br>
of just interested in coming out every so often!<br>
