In a totally unscientific, non-representative poll on Facebook, the comments that stuck out for me when I asked what the word Free meant to people were "I don't have to pay for it" and, more worryingly, "A con around the corner." Nobody except my fellow neckbeards mentioned anything related to freedom. Moises, I think the text is great, but overall I feel the flyer lacks visual appeal. My artistic talents are... let's say "basic", but I'm sure we have someone among us who can expand upon this good work and maybe add a little something to make it stand out a little more. Good work, let's keep it going!
