How about hold a "make comfy furniture that can also be washed in a washing maching" night?<br><br>Like, who WOULDN'T wanna hack in a hammock chair with built in, high airflow, laptop sling?, and surly we can design the worlds most comfortable, open source, Canvas, Accordion-Folding, Directors Love Seat? We who have been to burningman have seen all sorts of quick fab furniture that is comfy and quickly stowed. Just think how nice it would be to have a half dozen plywood pews that can be packed away after every 5MOF. I am sure there are a hundred ideas on Instructables...because that's exactly how many results I got when I searched for "couch".<br>
<br>I mean, cleaning furniture, in a public space, regularly, is great for many other reasons than just bed bugs. And the easier it is, the more frequently it will get done.<br><br>They may not have to cost money, either...or need to be cleaned<br>

Regardless of whether or not there are actually bed bugs, I think our furniture could use a good steam cleaning. I'd be in for any time this weekend, or evenings next week.<br><font color="#888888"><br>-Robert</font><div>

So... there ARE or ARE NOT actual identified bed bugs at noisebridge?<br>
Or do we just have mystery symptoms? Or do we just want to play with<br>
steam cleaners?<br>
