Arnass Lucassen needs his personal belongings, which DK had been working
on, but since he's stepping back from responsibilities could someone else
help out?? I thought Arnas might have been involved with Sudo somehow and
thought you might all possibly have some familiarity with this situation. I
personally cannot help out with this right now. Read below messages for
further details.

dear friends :
i have received the following email (below) from david keenan.
i am attempting to help take some workload off him, but i absolutely can
not do this right now.
i really dont know the right omni channels through which to shunt the
below, so i am sending this to the BAPS list in the hope that someone (not
niki!) can help with this.
the solution to david keenan's overwork is not my overwork, or niki's
overwork --
if anyone is able to help with this, i might be able to contribute some
help, but i absolutely cannot do it by myself.
please backchannel me if you can help with this --
love -- david

Good afternoon,
The location listed below (as long as they accept FedEx Ground shipments)
that location will be okay for drop off these pieces.
Thank you,
kristin

Kristin / Arnas -
At this late point and due to the large pickup timeframe (8am-6pm), I feel
it is probably better if we just drop off the cargo at a FedEx location. I
assume the following location would work?:
FedEx - 5895 Christie Ave, Emeryville, CA (510) 594-9800
David B. -
Thanx for being willing to take on some of my task workload at Omni - if
you are agreeable, I was hoping you might be willing to take on this small
task of coordinating with Kristin and Arnas (copied above) to make sure his
stuff is picked up from the ballroom (or ticket booth room if the boxes is
back inside after drywalling it)?
This is at this point a pressing matter I cannot attend to right now do
due to taking some time off -- Arnas does need his belongings, and they are
long overdue to be shipped.
Arnas' boxes were not picked up originally for two reasons:
- They all needed to be re-taped with packing tape (they were originally
taped with duct tape, which apparently was not allowed.). This has been
done.
- There were two large (but light) chairs and cushions that *still needed
to be packed*.
I personally spent an afternoon going to 7 different stores attempting to
find shipping boxes large enough to accommodate the chairs. Boxes this
large are apparently not sold at moving places, and the appliance / grocery
stores with large boxes would not give them to me - they get crushed /
compressed at 5am before the store is open and I could not get them to set
any aside.
Therefore, I set a volunteer looking for something to do, towards
fabricating shipping boxes for these chairs - and indeed there are two
large boxes fabricated, in the ballroom.
These 2x large boxes need the following:
- 1 chair & 1 associated cushion put in each box
- Packed with shipping peanuts or similar cushioning material to reduce
movement inside the box
- These 2 boxes particularly should be *entirely enclosed in packing tape
(all external surface areas)* - they will be put on a container ship, so
this needs to be solid.
- Remaining 2 shipping labels printed out and affixed & instructions re:
labelling followed (pasted in below).
I bought more packing tape for the boxes for this purpose into the
ballroom by the boxes, but I am not sure where that tape is at this time,
since I am not there.
Anyhow David, if you can please finish packing these boxes, and get them
over to FedEx?

Dear Customer, (please read all the instructions very carefully)
Terms and conditions: http://www.homeshipping.com/legal/terms.asp
1- Please find attached the FedEx Labels pertaining to your shipment.
FROM YOUR HOME TO OUR CUSTOMS WAREHOUSE
2- Please print the labels (you are receiving one label per box) and
Secure labels extremely well on the side of the box.
USE CLEAR PACKING TAPE TO SECURE THE LABELS (IF YOU HAVE TO WRAP THE
TAPE AROUND EACH BOX/BAG COMPLETELY)
3- *If label is peals off,* *your **shipment may be be subject to loss.*
4- To avoid that, please affix *two* (of the same label) on each box;
5- Place a copy of the label inside the box
PLEASE WRITE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN USA ON EVERY BOX/BAG
6- *With a black marker write down the tracking number on box.*
7- The tracking number is located (under the bar code) on the box.
8- No need to write the number inside the ( ) on the FedEx label.
*If you are shipping DUFFEL BAGS/LUGGAGE PLEASE USE LUGGA**GE TAGS and
THEY ARE FILLED OUT WITH YOUR INFORMATION*
9- Make sure the boxes or luggage are well packed.
10- We suggest that you wrap every box or luggage with plastic wrap
(Home depot or packing places)
11- Load heavy items at the bottom, and light items on top.
12- *For boxes, make sure you tape the Middle of the box and tape all
twelve edges of each box.*
13- Prepare the labels prior to the appointment time.
14- Drivers are not allowed to go inside your home. Prepare boxes
outside your door.
15- Do not over pack. Your boxes will endure a very long trip.
16- Tens of people will handle your boxes and luggage before you
receive it again.
17- If the box is too heavy and you cannot carry it, it will
jeopardize the safety of the box.
18 - Make sure that your boxes do leave your house before they are
well packed and protected.
19- No one cares about your items more than you.
20- Understand your Destination charges. All shipments traveling
overseas are expected to pay Local Terminal Charges as follows:
- Destination Terminal Handling Charges for ocean freight shipment LCL
is estimated between $175-$350 in local currency
- Destination Terminal Handling Charges for Air freight shipment that
is: estimated between $75-$100 in local currency
When vessels and air crafts arrive, local customs send the trucks to
retrieve the cargo, dismantle it and keep
it a safe warehouse until customs has cleared. That service is called
(Terminal Handling Charge). This is a local charge that is paid in
local currency. We do not see it or profit from it. It is based on
the feedback of our clients who shipped with us since 1995.
