[kwlug-disc] Lots of tech stuff to give away

[Madison Kelly]

If The Working Center would just e-waste it, that defeats my purpose. 
Anyone who might actually use some of this stuff though, I'm keen to 
give it to. Ideally I'd like it to call all at once, but if folks want 
to take some stuff, well that's better still than all going to waste. :)

So I'm happy if kwlug folks want to take some of it.
