What are your fears?

"I dreamed I walked through a crude architecture". We become too powerful and David Koresh our ass. Something horrible happens like the building burning down wiht people in it.
Can't get along.
Too few people get too much power
We become another gentrification space.
Lack of organization, lack of a common thread (what is the common goal?)
Tiered membership (unequal access / privilege)
Cash flow projections seem juvenile; will we be able to afford to be there in 6 months? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AktkZZru71ymdEFUSUtCSnQ5TXFfaE9wRWxTV1pSV2c&usp=sharing
Burnout, how can we prevent that? How can we get more people involved? How can we inspire greater agency / autonomy?
Defaulting to existing models without reflecting on them
Making sure what we do gives a good name to what brings us together, that failures don't reflect poorly on cooperative / collective efforts.
Exceding the Dunbar number (~150); too many people involved; social relations break down.

Fear driven conversations; my general level of excitement; not exploring how things should be / how we want them to be
Throwing the baby out with the bathwater; not letting ourselves fail and make mistakes; being crippled by fear
Can we successfully navigate the deal in a way that's effective and legal? What does the financial inspection entail? A lot of unknowns.
Conflict with the landlord.
No Plan B.
Not being heard by leadership/community when warnings are raised
