Hello friends and enemies, etc

I have just installed an information kiosk in front of the building
which was formerly a McDonalds, near the intersection of Grand and
Chippewa. The piece is four sided, and reads, respectively,

"THE COLLAPSE OF THE ST. LOUIS SCHOOL SYSTEM"

"A MICROCOSM OF THE FAILURE OF AMERICA"

third side is a map of St. Louis

and on the fourth side, in restroom graffiti style:

"CHAIN YOUR MAYOR TO A PIPE IN YOUR BASEMENT"

"BEAT HIM TIL HE SINGS"

"IT'S YOUR FAULT TOO"

As this is an uncommisioned gift to the city of St. Louis, I doubt it
will be there for very long. If you wish to view it, please feel free
to pass by. I would guess that someone will damage and/or remove it
within the next day or two.

THANKS,
Jason Wallace Triefenbach
