I think that we should always have a few kits from Adafruit or the
MakerShed on hand at the MakerSpace, in case there is a drop-in at open
hours or the computer help desk who wants one

That's the MakerShed blinky robot badge?  Yes, we should always have those
on hand, plus
parts for throwies.

I'm going to Atlanta May 23rd for my presentation at the conference on the
24th.   I'll be visiting the hackerspace FreeSide Atlanta while I'm there.

May 1-3 is Tuesday-Thursday I could do the presentation one of those nights.
It turns out that I have received more offers of projectors I can borrow to
do the presentation,
so all I need is the place and the date.  I can bring the projector, if
necessary.
