I am very happy to have foreigners at Noisebridge. I do not believe that
this reduces anyones ability to visit Noisebridge. I believe that such
people probably shouldn't run the machine to recover a DES key.

"Hey John, you know that really awesome offer you made? Do you think we
could impose on you a little more?"

Nah, I don't think I will ever ask John about having a tour of
Noisebridge people visiting his basement. I do not feel comfortable with
that and I feel like it would be very rude. Talk about looking a gift
horse in the mouth. :-(

Best,
Jake
