[Noisebridge-discuss] Save the sewing

  this makes sense to me. i'm willing to respect 
a shared tool and support protecting it from 
destruction. 
   i don't think noisebridge should be held 
responsible for a tool's health, but the community 
seems already to support the concept of shared 
tools and seems right to me that some group could 
bring in a shared tool that they and not the 
unwashed use to do stuff.
