Actually you know what.  Here is how I feel.

Imagine noisebridge is my apartment.  I have this area where I store things
that I like to be able to get to.  I have house guests over (anyone who
visits noisebrdge) and they keep leaving crap on the floor preventing me
from getting to the things I want to get to.  You know what I do?  I stop
letting them in my apartment.  What does noisebridge do?  Something
completely different that allows the things to keep preventing me from
getting to the things I like to be able to get to.  This includes physical
and non physical objects.  We are missing a logical step in preventing that
and I have no clue how to fix it but that is what is going on.  We keep
talking about the color of the bike shed without actually building the bike
shed really.

This is how I feel.   <3 you noisebridge!
