[CAUT] Benches

[Porritt, David]

I'd love it!  Our Facilities manager is thinking of getting a bar code reader and bar coding each piano and bench.  I think the RFID tags and readers might be beyond our budget!

I was going to suggest building them in the rooms, too big to 
fit through the door, but the recital hall is a different 
problem. How about a wildlife camera at each door, triggered 
by an RF tag on the bench? "Wanted" posters with photos of the 
benchnapper could then be posted around campus until the bench 
returned. Perhaps a bounty for the ears?
