Sharpshooter: firstly, did you find your books?
I seen it, I seen it in progress, a cool project for BBB, JOS cleaning, and
Nicholson & Galloway, and I like the look of it. Despite the fact that our good
friend Reverend Rhodes had something to do with it... I really do think it looks
neat, then again, the variation in color of clean natural sandstone I prefer to
black evidence of atmospheric pollution. To me the golden glow of of the
sandstone is much more a sign of wealth than I get with the train of thought that
I follow in wondering how the stone got to be as black as it was. Think how much
bad air people breathed in NYC while that darkness accumulated.
