So while those elements might be great somewhere where people walk up and read a sign, to a motorist on a busy highway it's just clutter.

And no, I have no desire to impress visitors with my knowledge of a half million dollar boondoggle, other than to point out how frivolous we are with our public money.
Yeah it's interesting because I first heard about it on the radio and thought it sounded super cool. Then I saw the photos and thought it was pretty bad. The video made it look a bit better but I can see it looking like a scrappy hunk a garbage. I'm over the 500k. We're idiots and we've been given a check so we're going to do what idiots and their money do.
