Circle of Light, city "art" project Figures I spose, they are much too wide to be sewer vents. Excerpt from https://www.kansas.com/opinion/opn-c...le1150001.html I have mixed feelings on that sort of thing. The cost may be huge or trivial depending on the city budget. It is nice to have some fancy decorative stuff, but it should be a priority behind road repair. collapsing bridges, school supplies, and the like. A city like say, Flint Michigan should not spend the money but put it elsewhere. +50 and growing as my blood pressure goes up and my wallet deflates. Well that is the logic of socialsim of course. Not one penny spent on a church whilst one man remains poor. And yet it was the socially funded parsons and gemtlemen of provate means who had the time to count worms and take weather readings and ponder life's mysteries that in te end did more to alleviate poverty than taking their livelihoods away ever would. Though installing some blinking lights will not achieve that. And they did not generally do it on public funds. NT |
