[Noisebridge-discuss] Huge roof leak!

The boxes of parts from the hack shelves and surrounding floor have been 
moved, drained, and have the vornado fans blasting dry air at them now. 
Ironically the stuff in cardboard boxes was better off - it got damp, 
but wasn't sitting in water. The electronics in the plastic tubs were. Ew.

Makerbot stuff was on the hack shelves (?!) and is being dried by 
makeshift heatlamp.

People who have shelves nearest the hack shelves have dampness problems, 
I'm afraid. Some of the most vulnerable items were pulled and are drying 
(a laptop, papers), the rest seem mostly okay. I've checked on as much 
as I can, and apologize in advance for sticking my fingers into people's 
stuff to see if it's soggy.
