[GreenKeys] TTY equipment stash - clarification

I had tentatively put my hat in the ring privately, but I'll do so publicly
as well.

My life has been a whirlwind for the past couple of years where a road trip
of such magnitude would be out of the question. I would have driven up in a
heartbeat to Oregon to help Pete and out east to help some of these other
guys who've posted similar things the past year or so, but it's been an
impossibility. However, next year may just work out for something like
this. I can't say for sure yet, but I would love to try. If I could make it
work, I'd be willing to distribute some of the machines I don't plan on
keeping for myself in exchange for gas money. Though with two little boys
coming with me and a limited time window on this trip, I can't go very far
out of the way. I'm not sure this will happen, but I'm looking into it as a
possibility. The best ~2 week window I have is right before Independence
Day.
