[Noisebridge-discuss] Tour NIF

[Rachel McConnell]

Laura, any changes to this info?  Also, everyone else, reminder!

I did a little rearranging on the wiki page,
https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Tour_National_Ignition_Facility, about
transportation.  If you can drive, pls put up your name to replace mine,
or I can still get a shared car and be a driver.
