• I've been doing a fair amount of thinking lately and came to a couple of realizations.
  • We might be approaching this non-profit thing wrong. Being a non-profit group requires organization as far as I'm aware, incorporation. What I think makes this and hsv2600 work so well is the fact that there is no clear leadership or organization. Everyone just shows up at agreed upon times and does what they want, whether that be helping someone else out, working on something of their own, or just having a decent discussion with someone intelligent. Where it gets weird is that the shop does need to be non-profit, but in order to find the space for a shop it would really help if the group is a non-profit. So this is where I'm torn a bit, and would like to discuss it with you all and see what you all think. Maybe I'm wrong, maybe I'm right, just let me know. --strages 06:46, 20 March 2007 (CDT)
  • This might help some of you who have been having trouble working on or coming up with some projects/ideas. You don't need to make something for everyone, just make something for yourself. The point is you made something and whether you realize it or not there is likely someone else out there who has been waiting for just that but maybe didn't have the same inspiration or gusto to make it. --strages 06:46, 20 March 2007 (CDT)
