[hackerspaces] USA Hackerspaces before HOAP?

[john arclight]

Yeah, basically, we all got jobs and now we can afford to have all of this
at a separate place where we _don't_ have to be kept awake by our friends
banging on things at 3:00am.

I think the concept has been around a long time.  For some reason, we like
to give a bunch of credit to the people who are "first to blog about it" but
it's nothing new.
