Jonathan...  I agree we should focus on the execution, and I think once we have a consensus, and we advertise the events more... more people will show up. 

I can't lift a lot(part of my general frustration with the world right now), but I'm down to help design the new space, and help cook and provide cleaning during that time to help out.

The problem Rusty mentioned is something that I think several Sudoers
tried to solve at the beginning of August with the deep
clean/reorganization weekend that we had.

If the general consensus is that the
organization/crowding/cleanliness/etc. problem still exists, I think
that a good starting point of discussion would be to address the
successes and rooms-for-improvement of our recent attempt to solve it.

In my opinion we should just have big clean days more often
