[ELECTRON] [SPAM?] Re: pillows and videos

[Benjamin Dembroski]

Despite the name, the Electron Club was never intended to be an 'electronics lab'.  Hacklab is the closest term for what we originally hoped it would turn out to be.

The idea being it should be a space where seasoned engineers, artists, activists, students, hipsters, conservatives, liberals, knitters, bakers, -- anyone who has an interest in 'hacking' could meet, mix,influence and teach each other.

Hopefully this is more interesting and beneficial than a 'pure' anything club for all concerned.

Maybe a holiday party in the club for all members might be in order ?   I'll make some cookies…

Best,
Ben
