However, there are two near-term problems, 501(c)(x) status (where probably x=6), and a hardware upgrade that we need to focus on first. An additional location is pointless if we don't survive our burst of success in the current location. I need to apologize, between travel in late October and early November, a bad cold in Mid-November, and the holiday I haven't made much progress on a upgrade plan. I hope to make some good progress over the next couple weeks. A member survey of expansion plans was brought up, I think that is a wonderful idea especially to provide some data to go with a upgrade plan. Is someone willing to take on the task of a member survey?
