PUSHING HEMPFEST OUT

DEAR EDITOR:

Hmm, the heavily endowed SAM doesn't want Hempfest anymore ["Stoners
vs. Sculptures," May 16]. I think we can see where this is going. The
fest will be relegated to Magnuson Park or to another city. And I'll
miss it way more than the Sonics, because if people can't gather over
something they care about, we're dead.

As for the sculpture "garden," I gain strength from recalling what
became of other equally irritating eyesores. Richard Serra's Tilted
Arc was shit-canned from Manhattan and sent to the breakers. It could
happen again, right?
