I hope that someone from telecom will be able to correct this problem soon. As the Crime Prevention Officer, we suggest to people to become familiar with the location of lobby and emergency telephones in case of an emergency, they won't be at a loss. Now to find out that some of these lobby telephones are in-operable, is a huge concern for the safety of the MIT Community. Thanks for your attention to this matter.

Date: Wed, 26 Apr 1995 11:23:26 EDT good morning cheryl - thanks for your important message. i have one growing concern about finding more-and-more broken _institute lobby_ phones in various well-travelled locations. for _months_ the phone on the ground floor level of the media lab, e15, aka: the weisner building, at 20 ames street, has been non-operative. for _weeks_ the phone at the intersection of buildings 5 & 1, on the first floor, by the mass. ave. wheel chair lift, has been non-operative. and the other day i noted that the phone under the stair well where buildings 8 and 16 meet, is also non-operative. some time ago i mentioned the e15 phone to telecomm, and i'm sure that as commencement season nears they'll all be fixed, BUT, in light of precautions we should all be taking and in case of heaven-forbid, any worse-possible-case situation arising that would be faster reported if those telephone instruments were functioning, i'd like to pass this request onward through you personally because i think you can probably get the work done instantly. in case there is a legitimate too-high work load for telecomm to be able to effect these repairs quickly, i'd like to volunteer some extra hours-per-week to help telecomm with replacing those instruments and getting them working again, a.s.a.p. maybe i'll send mitch wolfe a note to that effect. hastily, but sincerely, - r richard shyduroff e15-443, x3-2000, h: 864-4039 . ------- End of Forwarded Message
