A flying person could memoralize but also make a statement about freedom and destiny and all types of things. But this is not that at all. It almost shows the defeat of that decisions-- they took theit own destiny, but look how it ended. It seems a poor choice of timing, not just for the horror it depicts, but for the message it has. ========================================================= Important Subscriber Information: The Museum-L FAQ file is located at http://www.finalchapter.com/museum-l-faq/ .
