Love that story Michael...! I take the topics down (they make good kindling for my woodstove, if they are recycled. The posters, I'm rather inclined to leave up. I once left the laws and the principles hanging in a community hall in a place that really needed some open space. When I cam back nine months later to do another one, the posters were right where we had left them, presiding over countless events in the life of that community, seeping a little each time into the consciousness.
