I'm not sure if anyone else has made this connection yet; but... Many of the letters in favor of Tau to the Snooze Wreckered were written by people on the sculpture committee or Pierro Gallery.

Is that a surprise? Is it even wrong?

Wait, if they're 'unsolicated' how are they going to get more, 'if we'd like'?

Maybe because it's Friday, but I don't get it!

Tom-
No it isn't a surprise at all. The point is /was the letters being from people on the 'advisery board' for the sculputre shoots holes in the claim there have been many letters in ***support*** of the statue. I'm sure MHD or Joel will have no problem finding the clip with Cheryl saying 'most of the letters weren't solicated.' Seems a lot of them were. I don't want to cause problems for Dave and Jamie by posting the names of those who wrote letters with a connection to one of Cheryl's organizations. But I might list the names and dates of all the scuptre related letters as well as those on the boards someone posted a few weeks ago. That way people can come to their own conclusions.

JTA,

Click on the link I posted above for the clip you mention.

I think it would be very interesting to see a list of the names of people who wrote the "umpteen" letters.

JTA, I'm pretty sure she said "Many of them unsolicited" as opposed to "Most." I'd guess a greater percentage were written by people who had skin in the game.

MHD-
Priceless! I need another link if you have it handy. The one for the 'Timeline.' Need to make sure about somethink and the link I have won't work.


Rastro-
You might be correct about that. I'm not too sure now. 'Many' is still more then 'some' or 'a few' though. Right?

JTA,

The "timeline" can be found in the "Tony Smith Sculpture FACTS" thread.

BTW - I just saw that in the News Record there was another letter against the statue...and it wasn't even solicited.
