May I ask you to think about what the public finds as the primary benefit of Free Geek? I would guess it is, in this order:

  1. Recycling to keep toxics out of the waste stream
  2. Educational - teaching skills to those who don't have
  3. Repurposing machines

So, maybe we could present:

  1. how many tons of mercury, lead, cadmium, nickel and other badstuff we've sequestered through *careful* recycling, and
  2. how many people have learned computer skills, before
  3. we roll on to how many boxen have good homes now.

I'd be happy to run, and design if you also need, a (short) telephone survey between now and 16 April to see what the people really think.

Polling is something politicos understand. With a well-designed poll, raw data (a log of each interview) and the inevitable executive summary of results to demonstrate that Portlanders like us, we might get more R E S P E C T from City Hall than we do at present.

Or, so my BS in Journalism, and subsequent PR experience would lead me to believe, anyway.
