I know we've all been laughing about it. But, seriously, the cheerios smatterings look downright stupid compared to the other offerings. And I know we all read - repeatedly - about how tasteful the building wrappings would be.

So what gives? Is there anyone we can contact (mayor, vanoc, etc) to express our displeasure over this jukebox of random crap concept and have any hope of changing their minds. It really looks tacky. And in this case, I think the concept drawing says enough. I don't think I need to see the vision "fully realized" to pass judgment .

No, it's not the most critical of matters. But I do have to say I'm a bit disappointed after reading these articles in which the artistic merits angle was pushed so hard.

Heck, with that reasoning, maybe one of the "dazzling" downtown light displays will end up just being several dozen strands of Christmas lights plugged in and tossed over the side of a bridge . . . with advertisements for Kodak film tied to the end to blow in the breeze .
