I actually don't think Noisebridge treated the old new chairs any worse 
than any other organization of our size.  For comparison, look at the 
state of the new new chairs: they're from the same people, and they're 
only about a year old because a year ago they donated their old new 
chairs to us.  Also there is likely a near-infinite supply of new old 
chairs whenever we need more, and if something's gonna go in the 
landfill, let it be the old old old chairs not the old new old ones.

I planned to sort out the worst of our chair supply and get rid of them, 
as after this donation we seem to have more chairs than we really need, 
but I just got a rush job and won't be able to do that until sometime 
next week at the earliest.  If anyone else wants to take that on, please do!

I am talking about things like foam dug out of the arm padding etc.   If these chairs had gone to another business instead of to us they would still be in relatively new condition.
