The artists' Web site, www.heavytrash.blogspot.com, says that people "do not want walled fortresses dividing their neighborhoods or blocking off what would otherwise be public streets and sidewalks."

It also cites poet Robert Frost: "Something there is that does not love a wall/That wants it down ..."

That line by Frost is from The Mending Wall. The last line of the poem is: 'Good fences make good neighbors.'

Frost is also talking about stone walls. The misquotes in this article are amazing; well, maybe not, knowing how liberals love to twist the truth.

If walled communities proliferate, I would venture to say that it is because the owners WANT such walls.

Ping for the art group.
