[Noisebridge-discuss] New Hackerspace in N. Orlando, Florida

[Mitch Altman]

:)

 

We, as geeks, have found a way to get together in actual, real, live, community.  That isn't easy in our crazy world.  But everyone needs community to thrive.  The world is watching us.  They want what we have.  And we give it freely.  It can't help but spread.

 

Mitch.
