Justin, Thanks for saying this. I have been trying to figure out what is going on here.
Lion invited me as an adviser and that is flattering if a bit surprising, since I don't know him, have never been to a Saturday house, and have not a clue as to what all the high mined idealism is for. I don't know much about a lot of what he is saying, but if there is something I can offer, and if the end result is in line with what I want to achieve, then I am happy to help. For me the goal is a vibrant and diverse community, and a place to do cool shit. I want a place to coop a laser cutter. I want a place where I have access to a high quality 3d printer. I want a place to meet people who know more about these things then I do, but less about some things I know a lot about. I intend to make this place, and if Saturday House is part of the mix, so much the better.
