Reads like nonsense from the deep ecology cult. I wouldn't hire this firm to design a cupcake.

This was buried in the original Post-Gazette story that brought this into the MSM:

"It's a memorial to the terrorists," McRae said. "It's not a memorial to the innocent Americans who died there."

But Tom Sokolowski, the director of the Andy Warhol Museum, and one of the Stage II jury members, said that claim is 'asinine'. "If the families of the 40 people who were killed felt this was an appropriate symbol to honor their loved ones, then I think he is delusional," he said. "To take this small-minded, bigoted view is disgusting and repellent." -- Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, by Paula Reed Ward

Well, the Internet is full of all kind of interesting things:

"MONDAY: Last night I dreamed that I return to New York City...AIDS was all around me again. People were sick, people were dying...and yet--yet--style was everywhere...AIDS graphics were stylish, Robert Mapplethorpe's photographs were stylish, ACT-Up meetings were echt stylish and the attendees young and hot! The younger you were, the tighter your jeans, the closer cropped your hair, the louder your bray...Get relevant, get laid. It was hot and in supremely good taste. Yum...All so tasteful. Lush dying. If a bunch of fags was to hang some crepe, then dammit it was going to be real peu de soi, Mary! And hang the crepe we did." -- The Unfashionability of AIDS, by Tom Sokolowski (Director of the Andy Warhol Museum).
