> [@SteveG1](#): > > Why would I give a fuck about some guy I never even heard of? But then I don’t give a fuck about you either. Awww…is the poor Trumpista unhappy that I’m picking on Trump? I’m sorry that this is the best thing I can say about your hero, but he’s been president for almost a week and that’s largely the only positive thing I can say about him. But you can go back to your Trump-Love and hug your hero and just pretend I didn’t say anything about him. Careful though–I’ve heard his cheeto dust gets on your clothes. ---

The is barge traffic through Arkansas. Is there much of it where this was planned? The boats are higher than nine feet. ---

Christo, does anyone read anything for comprehension anymore? First **Fenris** is going on about non-existent concrete pylons, and now you seem to be under the impression that this project was planned for the state of Arkansas. From the OP’s link: > [@](#): > > For more than 20 years, the artist Christo has worked tirelessly and spent $15 million of his own money to create a vast public artwork in **Colorado** … ---

> [@carnivorousplant](#): > > I attempted to pose the question, “Does that part of the river have as much barge traffic as the part in Arkansas.” Considering that the section of the Arkansas River navigable by barges ends at Muskogee, Oklahoma, over 300 miles from the Colorado border, and that Christo chose his section of river “partly because it was a popular rafting spot,” i’m going to take a wild guess and suggest that the answer to your question might be “no.” If by “as much” you mean “none at all.” ---

Can we export Christo to Canada? Funds could be raised to encase the entire province of Quebec in billowing red-orange fabric, to protest the Trump regime. That’ll teach him! ---
