[ELECTRON] Important news from the CCA

[Bob Hamilton]

The summons was sent to the "Glasgow Social Centre", wasn't as if the
cca was being dragged to court. The group just kind of faded away as
many groups do these days. Don't think there was any great "abuse of
trust" or fraudulent activities going on. Its just sloppiness.

The more important issue is making sure the place is secured when we
leave or use the room. And respectful that other people may have things
of value, even if we haven't, that we should be mindful of. Including
the staff space and adjoining CCA office. And Martins time in having to
do all of this boring work in reminding us:) Bob
