**Quotes**
> It was meant to be a single event, but people asked if it was recurring — so it became weekly.[...] Because it’s weekly, it feels non-committal, but consistent enough for reflection. — Ana, London

> Start small — a table, four people, and an idea is enough. [...] We announce it as an informal meetup so people feel they can just come, drink something, and talk. — Brendan, Berlin

> A lot of people just are intrigued by the idea actually. I've had a lot of conversations where I'm selling somebody a book and they look at the flyer and they say “what is permacomputing?” and I go into my little spiel. People want to learn more about this stuff. — Steve, Philadelphia

> Here people interested in permacomputing are those who live the most remotely because they have a need for a kind of resilience. At least in Ireland, that's what I've noticed. When I ran the online [workshop], I was expecting a bigger diversity of people in terms of geography but I was wrong. People from even further away [joined] and they were glad to be able to join online. [...] there are lots of people who literally, as soon as there is a minor storm, lose power and they lose Internet. [...] So, it's really a question of need. — Colm, County Mayo
