 * "My name is ___. I'm from Gresham. I think that if we had a donation center out towards Gresham, it would be very helpful for Free Geek. Not a build center but just an electrical drop off place. My number is ____."
 * "More vegan doughnuts and cakes. Thank you!"
 * "Spam! Would you like SWEET car for LOW, LOW price? click here"

 * "We need to support an e-book section to the library. I have thousands (literally) of computer-based/oriented e-books I'd be willing to download if Free Geek would be willing to support such an effort. This includes current magazines i.e. Linux Journal and Ubuntu Magazine."
 * There are some questions about how we would implement this - we will do some research on our end but in the meantime we do know the Multnomah County Library system has a great e-book section.
 * "I took a quite new Monopoly Game DVD out of a scrapped drive (on "table," 3/19/2010). I think that these factory-sealed disks should be DONATED to hospitals and youth centers. They now must buy those and it diverts money from necessities like food and medicines. That's the reason I think the added complications (to be carried out by Receiving I suggest) is well worth it."
 * All games found in drives go to the Classic Gaming Library to determine whether they can be of further use. We shred all other CDs found in drives due to data security concerns.
 * "We Love Y'all"
 * "Get more laptops faster!!! !!!for parts!!!"
 * We would love to! Our gizmo flow is controlled by incoming donations and community partnerships, both of which we work to cultivate.
 * "When building/changing specs and areas ADA accessibility needs to be considered all the time (current laptop arrangements of space make it almost impossible for some one in a wheelchair to work)."
 * This is absolutely true, and an unfortunate oversight on our part. We want Free Geek to be a place that's easily accessible to everyone, regardless of their ability. We will work to figure out a different way to make this area work for everyone.
 * "We need a hot tub and a sauna in Adv Test!"
 * "Where is my army of flying monkeys?"
 * "Please provide feedback re: suggestions made - you decide the method since suggestions are usually made anonymously."
 * We have added to the signage on the Comment Box letting people know about this wiki page.
 * A hot tub in Adv test would be a GREAT addition to our testing tool kit."
