[hackerspaces] The Club-Mate Design Pattern, now for US Hackerspaces!

[Nick Farr (hackerspaces.org)]

"Buy at least one pallet of Club-Mate and sell it in your hackerspace.
You will realise the results very soon!"
- http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/The_Club_Mate_Pattern

Club-Mate has been available in the US for a while, but there hasn't
been a big effort to get it into hackerspaces in the US.  Until now:

http://www.hackersonaplane.info/club-mate-in-the-usa/

Instead of buying a whole pallet of Club-Mate, I'm delivering cases of
20 bottles around the US starting August 16th.  See for yourself why
this is the drink of choice in EU hackerspaces, and help launch the US
distribution of a beverage that helps fund Hackerspaces.

If this effort is successful, it will help us prove to investors and
potential creditors that there is a viable market for Club-Mate in the
US.  We'll be able to buy in much bigger volume, save on shipping
costs and offer special pricing to US Hackerspaces, so you can help
fund your operations with it just like Hackerspaces in Europe do.  If
this takes off, the trucks that bring Club-Mate between cities will
also be available for use by Hackerspaces to ship equipment from place
to place.

But it starts with you: If you're in the US, please consider buying a case.

If you're outside the US, please pass on this message to any friends
in the US who might be interested in getting their own case, or
helping jump-start US distribution of Club-Mate.

Thanks again!
