Hello,
	There is a new post on Dean's World.  You can read it at:

http://www.deanesmay.com/posts/1157341753.shtml

It begins:

	 Most people tolerate bad art in public spaces
	because they think they have to. But Dubliners
	strike back at bad art whenever they can.  The
	Spire of Dublin, which was built to replace the
	Nelson Pillar, which IRA art critics bombed in
	1996, is nicknamed the "Stiletto in the Ghetto".
	It's also the "the Rod to God", the "Erection at
	the Intersection," and the "Stiffy by the Liffey." 
	This buxom statue of Molly Malone, which Dubliners
	criticize for nearly bursting loose from her dress,
	is called the "Tart with the Cart."  <img
