Hey<br><br>This list is an unmoderated list, and I would like to keep it that way. That being said, based on the last couple of comments, I would like to point out that they are contrary to the principles and the spirit of the Hackerspace, as listed here:<br>
<br><a href="http://vancouver.hackspace.ca/doku.php?id=principles">http://vancouver.hackspace.ca/doku.php?id=principles</a><br><br>Making fun of the rats is fine, but given the fact that we are relatively new members of the Downtown Eastside community, it would be appreciated if sensitivity was shown when making comments about the space. If people could refrain from making remarks at the expense of others on the public list, that would be greatly appreciated. <br>
<br>Thanks<br><br>Joe B<br>List Admin/Director/Co-Founder<br>Vancouver Hack Space<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 3:45 PM, Morgan Redman <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ijeyd@mac.com">ijeyd@mac.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Im going to have to make a serious suggestion to the city that the proposed crow mural be replaced with one featuring crack addicts, a few trendy hackers in lab coats, and several rats with microchips and RFID circuitry protruding from exposed brain tissue.<br>
