Re: [sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] someone is stealing things at sudoroom / the omni

that's a great idea! one problem: there is a chance the thief is reading this.  i suggest the solution be scrapped, and best discussed at the next meeting, which i really want to be at, so if someone wants to give me a ride from downtown oakland in the event i am less than adequately mobile, i would gladly and quickly take them up on it. once again, thanks @Autonomous for the suggestion, and especially for the clear and comprehensive description & instructions thereof.

When the copper has been removed it will open the switch triggering an interrupt function that will log the event as well as possibly activate other devices such as a loud alarm. Then what would you do after the thief is caught red-handed? On Thu, Mar 26, 2015 at 4:44 PM, Cere Mona Davis &lt;ceremona(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: I think that's a totally reasonable proposal.

We all should have seen this coming but I really don't want this to keep happening.  I think we might need to start thinking about locks on the sudoroom/CCL space, on all three doors connecting the room. when members close down the space they will be able to lock the doors and then we don't have to worry as much about people tearing apart our hard work so they can cash in copper to get a few bucks... -jake _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/discuss _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/discuss   -- <3 Rachel   -- <3 Rachel _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss   -- Be seeing you. _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss(a)lists.omnicommons.org https://omnicommons.org/lists/listinfo/discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss _______________________________________________ sudo-discuss mailing list sudo-discuss(a)lists.sudoroom.org https://lists.sudoroom.org/listinfo/sudo-discuss -- Be seeing you.
