** Ken is eating cookies. This place is like his garage, but a little bit cleaner. He hacks anything he can get his hands on. He heard about us from that guy. He's been reading about hackerspaces for a while. Art, scavenging, repurposing and whatever else.
** George is that guy. He does fisual stuff, fine arts, interactive paintings, doing stuff with stuff. He brought cookies. He heard about us not from Ken. There's a guy who does 3d printing at the art institute of Chicago who told George about us.
** This fellow is here from the Field Museum. He isn't allowed to stay at the museum after work - he's been looking for a place to tinker. Likes motorcycles, etc.

** Nate is a software engineer. He heard about us from the Googs, looking for machine tools.
** Patrick is an 'old, new' person. He lives in the area and writes code all day, so he wants to do things that aren't code.
** Jeff was a member for a little while last year, and is joining again.
** Caitlin heard about us from Jeff. She's a visual artist who's learning programming. She wanted to come here to have access to tools.
** Kate heard about us on meetup, in her spam folder. She is learning how to program in C and Java.
