If you draw a venn diagram of people that collect washers, and people that would set up a booth to talk to others, the intersection is going to be extremely small.
- lqet 2y agoThe intersection will most likely only contain this woman.
- thsksbd 2y agoNo, I think it will also include a smattering of Englishmen, a score of Germans and (maybe) a guy with a mechanical engineering degree who dedicated his career to washers.
- peppertree 2y agoOk if you draw a third circle representing all women then this would be the only woman.
- m463 2y agoI suspect there will be a bunch of washer field engineers, and some washer CTOs.

- zeristor 2y agoDo you mean like to overlapping washers?
- em-bee 2y agothis is part of the first friday art walk happening every month in portland. i can imagine that while this display is still unusual in that context, a lot more people are going to be out looking for interesting stuff, and i'd like to think that at least once in a while an interesting conversation will happen. maybe someone collecting screws or nuts or even offers to add to the collection or someone working with these with their own stories to tell.

I’d recognize it anywhere - when my kid was still small, the children’s museum was still there and I’ve walked past that spot a million times.
