If I had seen the above I would of been somewhat like. Hunh? And more then a little skepticle. But a Flikr user named tikaro was approached by this same guy and wanted to show him his school.
Free tech school in basement: GO RIGHT IN – a photoset on Flickr
On the way to my employer’s community service day in the Bronx, a genial older man on the street asks me: “Young man: do you want to learn electrical engineering?”
The Muse of Bloggers demands that I accept his invitation to see the school — which turns out to be in a basement. DEEP in a basement. I’m not sure if i’m going to end the day with both my kidneys (“Top prices paid for healthy kidneys of trade-shool students!”)
It turns out he’s not an evil kidney-harvester. He’s doing a service by teaching employable skills for free. And he has a kickass lair.
