Next time I get within range of a plastic bender, I'll whip up a few polycarb donation boxes with combination locks and bring them in. They'll be bulletproof!<br><br>Sean<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 29, 2010 at 6:28 AM, Patrick Keys <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:citizenkeys@gmail.com">citizenkeys@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">locked plexiglass box for donations was discussed at last week's<br>
meeting, which sounds like a good idea.<br>
<br>
anonymous locker dead drops for donations of giant stacks of unmarked<br>
bills has also been discussed. keeping keys and aliens seems to be the<br>
issues.<br>
<br>
"coin slot" spiral funnels, along with the other plastic containers<br>
floating around, kinda undermine the noisebridge need for money. single<br>
secure dropbox for donations might be more effective.<br>
