		<description>Joanne - I find your comment highly insulting.  You, like anyone else, have a right to dislike, even detest, Spindle.  That&#039;s fine.  There&#039;s a lot of work in museums that everyone seems to love, but that I can&#039;t stand. Taste is personal.

But what do you know about the lives of those of us who argue for its preservation?  Nothing, really.  Do you think we do nothing but mill about, devoting all of our productive energies and attentions to the preservation of this artwork?  Of course not.

I, for example, work in the non-profit industry, and my small organization of underpaid and overworked comrades devote all of our working time (and much of our non-working time, as well) to better the community we live in.  Our organization provides education to thousands of underserved elementary - high school children every year, including programs that work specifically with homeless children.  I have no doubt that other persons sympathetic to the fate of Spindle devote their energies to causes equally socially important, if not more so.</description>

		<description>I cannot believe that any intelligent, reasonable people are spending their time worrying ober the demolition of a stack of cars on a spindle &amp; that anyone refers to it as a work of art. I live in a northern Chicago suburb but I&#039;ve been to Berwyn &amp; I&#039;ve seen the spindle. 

I don&#039;t care who the property went to...Walgreens or anyone else. The thing was an eyesore. Those who have evdiently been spending their time rallying around what they consider a landmark would surely better serve their community, and all of us, in fact the USA, by donating their time volunteering for a worthwhile cause...at a hospital, a homeless shelter, an outreach center...there are multitudes of charitable organizations to choose from. 

Are you all ignorant, selfish people? Do you see your life calling to be protecting a bunch of skewered automobiles (which contribute to the economy crisis we all presently suffer)?  If so, you are truly ignorant. Please consider expending your efforts to save something meaningful...like the life of a hungry child.

You are idiots!!!</description>

		<description>You always have the best ideas.  Even skewering a single Walgreens would be a triumph.</description>

		<description>How cool would that be if someone skewered a parking lot full of WALGREENS on a spindle and called it art?</description>
