Hi brothers,

* I walked in the APOffice this afternoon, and found the metal shelves
   by the yellow wall entry to the back APOffice ('ween the Grey PAINTS
   cabinet, and the floor to ceiling green chalk board) bent out with much
   of the card and envelopes on the floor.

* If you know how this happened, please let us know, so we learn what
   not to do in the future.

   The adjacent couch was away from the wall, with some of the stock
   behind it.  This makes me wonder if someone tried to move the
   shelves from the middle?  Perhaps to get at the cables behind them?

* PFTGOTO: it's is best to move tall furniture from the bottom, with a one or
   more people balancing the top.

* PFTGOTO: if you are aware of a safety issue in the APOffice, send
   email to
      apo-news@mit.edu

* The contents of the shelves are now temporarily in four boxes.  They
   are HEAVY and flimsy.  PLEASE be careful if you have to move them.

* Molly came by the APOffice, and as Press Shop Manager said we would
   not try to fix the shelves, but would replace them.

* I suggest AX get heavy duty rolling shelves like the three SWE has
   in their corner. But with five or six shelves each.

   It also be good to replace the scrapbook shelves with rolling
   shelves, so repair and maintenance of that radiator would be
   easier.

* I plan to take the old shelves apart, and take the pieces home.
