[imc-tech-solidarity] Re: [Seasc] imc-tech-solidarity funding proposal

[anarch3m]

My responses:

1. good initiative and wonderful.  But what about the thread/rumor that the Teamsters were finding us a place for them to ride?

2. wonder what is setting in PDX or the bay, where they seem to have the parts for rebuilding thanks to recycling.  We should seriously pen a letter to Re-PC and a few others.  Ask them to DONATE the memory.

3.  Yes.
