This is good Diane,now more disabled people like me can enjoy the pleasures of the ageless source of art ,fun and survival of dumpster diving!(Oh, i remember when i used to be able to climb into those things, i felt like Indiana Jones!)

I like the Dkult sweat shop, but how about a DKult Sweat Lodge?????? Trashpo vision quests! Find your private trash Totem! I think Erni's and Nancys would be=Rust!

Comment by DKeys on June 28, 2012 at 5:15pm: some new publicity photos pending approval along with the TrashPoLitzers. Lisa has created the first ever virtual trash from her virtual recycle bin-does this make her a virtual dumpster diver?

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 28, 2012 at 4:19pm: Allright, and you nominated me too. So I will prepare nomination forms for De Villo Sloan "Trashpoem for DK" and Skybridge Studios for "Son of Man Mail-art."

THE COMMITTEE is not sure exactly what Yves did, but they're convinced it's important.

Comment by DKeys on June 28, 2012 at 4:16pm: Lisa's Son of Man Mail Art!

Comment by De Villo Sloan on June 28, 2012 at 4:15pm: THE COMMITTEE is still reviewing the Lynn Radford & Yves Maraux nominations.
