Tony, as usual, sums it up brilliantly. And as Tara mentioned, Citizen Space stands firmly behind our free drop-in policy. Even in tight times when it's tempting to try to charge hourly or daily, it really is the drop-ins that make CS what it is. For me, that's the core of what coworking at CS is about -- collaboration, accelerating serendipity, etc.
