LOL<BR> <BR>When I came in to set up for the Raspberry Pi event, I found someone asleep, and did just as Ben said. It took quite a bit prodding, and I had to remain assertive. The person wasn't happy, but he was polite (after he finally woke up) , and he left.<BR> <BR>It is totally fine to tell people that you don't want them sleeping at Noisebridge. And it is totally fine to ask them to leave if they are asleep. But, you need to do so in an excellent way (as you remain assertive).<BR> <BR>Mitch.<br> <BR><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sun, 30 Sep 2012 17:10:40 -0700<br>From: tomlong@gmail.com<br>To: noisebridge-discuss@lists.noisebridge.net<br>Subject: Re: [Noisebridge-discuss] Anti-sleepers / Livers at Noisebridge and Martin's drunkenness again.<br><br> <a href="http://wearcam.org/seatsale/" target="_blank">http://wearcam.org/seatsale/</a><span></span><br><br>On Sunday, September 30, 2012, Danny O'Brien wrote:<br><blockquote style="padding-left: 1ex; border-left-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-left-width: 1px; border-left-style: solid;" class="ecxgmail_quote">
