3. demonstrations on rulers, etc.
4. classes (so we can learn more) and offer the classes at different times, day, evenings, weekends
5. Have an area to sit and relax if you need to
6. Samples & Demonstrations
Thanks again for starting this thread!
all the above. But no music please. LQS should be like libraries
peaceful. Don't get me wrong, I love music, but I've been in too
many places where the music is not my choice or its so loud you
can't hear yourself think or have a nice conversation. Most places
play it so loud I just turn around and leave without buying.
