[Noisebridge-discuss] lockers for noisebridge - big enough? funding?

[jim]

    seems reasonable to me, in the main. i especially 
like the "to each his own" part. 
    as i understand the proposed location, i prefer 
locating the lockers against the classroom walls facing 
the cooking area, or somewhere "down there" in the 
eastern part of the space; mainly, i don't like the 
idea of disrupting the existing shelves. 
    moxie also made a good point about the numbers 
possibly having an effect of drawing lines.
