I would like to second that and say:
Jon and Phoebe - Thank you so much for your dedication and the hard work to make another Maker Faire event successful! The booth set-up was professional and welcoming. You made sure that volunteers can focus talking to the visitors. I had fun taking the morning shift on Sunday and talking to the visitors.

This evening brought another years Maker Faire to a close, for better or worse. It wasn't a perfectly smooth operation, but we managed to get done what we needed to and have some fun while we were at it. For everyone that had trouble getting there/getting in/finding the gate/etc, I'm sorry. We thought we had everything figured out, but Maker Faire loves to change things up on us, I guess that is part of the adventure. It was a rather long weekend, but we answered lots of questions and only had a few instances of the Thorium Protocol. Best of all, we got a rather decent sum of donations. It wasn't no $10 million, but it was about 50% more than we got last year. All in all, a job well done
- To those of you that helped us in the planning and preparation stages for
the last few months, it was worth it.
- To the each and every volunteer and foundation staff that spent a shift at
the booth: __Thank you soooo much__. The shift system might have seemed a little crazy, but it worked out
- To Brion, for making us a new (Offline) Guess The Language in something
like an hour, it was amazingly popular all weekend.
- To our friends at WikiHow whom were kind enough to loan us use of their
Wifi/Verizon card hack during the Great Wifi Debacle of Saturday morning - kick ass.
- To Phoebe, my partner in crime (who deserves a ton of credit for making
sure everything worked out, contrary to what she's been saying about 'not being in charge'): Why do we keep doing this? ^_^
- Lastly, to everyone whom stopped by to show their support (even if they
couldn't volunteer), we appreciate the love.
Now I'm gonna go sleep for the next 48 hours- -Jon
