Sounds like Beanstream has better support than the alternatives. Kelly would like to talk to the people who pay noisebridge with bank transfers to see what they want. Q: Who are they? rip xero a new one.

Summary: This reconciliation thing has got to be dealt with.

We don't *HAVE* to watch this. BUT we DO.

And so it goes.

Zoning out. Is there a way to have a sucessful mediation? Rayc doesn't think so.
