[Noisebridge-discuss] State of the dirty workshop

[jim]

    Your take on my words is different from 
my intent. Your labeled lockbox idea is a 
good solution. Your reference to a sekert 
klub strikes me as over-the-top per my 
intent. 
    And I didn't want to suggest hiding all 
sharp or dangerous objects. Just a few that 
are both "exotic" and "dangerous", which is 
to say, things that require some training 
and can cause serious damage, like converting 
flesh to mush.
