you might mention that it's possible to silkscreen other things

you might want to NOT mention prices, as they go up from time to time

add a link to the AX web page for each service, not just silkscreening
just mention the materials are cheap, and prices are on the web page

you might want a "collaborate on doing community service with us" entry

AX might want to offer tool safety training ...

be happy to comment on any revised entries

   Subject: APO entries for ASA Collaboration Directory
   
   I think it's about time we put our various services in the ASA's
   collaboration directory, so I took the liberty of drafting these
   listings. All of them need editing.
   
   Title: Drop Poster Paper & Paint
   
   Description: Do you need a large banner or poster? APO sells drop
   poster paper (4 feet wide) for $0.20 per foot of length, and paint for
   $0.30 per foot -- so an 8-foot poster for Lobby 7 is only $4. We can
   also lend brushes and dropcloths. See
   <http://web.mit.edu/apo/www/dropposter-info.shtml> for information, or
   email apo (at) mit (dot) edu / call x3-3788 to make an appointment.
   
   Title: Letterpress Printing
   
   Description: [I really, really don't know what to write here. The text
   at <http://web.mit.edu/apo/www/printing/> is too long... can someone
   who actually knows about the printshop write something or edit the
   website text?]
   
   Title: Silk Screening
   
   Description: APO provides limited T-shirt silk screening services to
   the community at cost. We also sell T-shirts from time to time in
   Lobby 10 to raise money for charities. To request more information
   about silk screening, contact us at apo-silkscreen _at_ mit.edu .
   [taken straight from <http://web.mit.edu/apo/www/silkscreening.shtml>,
   could probably use elaboration]
   
   Title: Service Project Planning [I'm not sure this one should even be
   listed, because groups seem to do OK by themselves, but I feel like we
   might have something to contribute]
   
   Description: Does your dorm, FSILG, or other group want to go on a
   community service project? APO can help, with our long list of
   contacts at various local service organizations, and our extensive
   experience in planning service trips for small and large groups. [more
   text here???]
