In 2007 several people and I started NYC Resistor, a hacker space in Brooklyn, completely unaware of this resistors in New Jersey.

It was over 10 years later that any of us heard of this much older resistor. It's kinda it funny how similar we are to them, nearly shared a name, and completely unaware of each other.

The world needs more places where people can explore their curiosity of how things work.
