[Makerspace-keymembers] Fwd: Interested in your setup

[elizaBeth Simpson]

This actually might be something addressed by the IMC liability insurance-
I think it probably is. But, we should know one way or the other- if people
are covered by IMC liability, they actually wouldn't need to sign another
Makerspace waiver.

If I'm being totally redundant to other's efforts- I apologize!
