So the saga continues..... With a negative 39 philanthropy rating in Silly Icon Valley Cleveland ...wherever that is is kicking your little BMW's by 70 HUGE points FOR ShAME! ... the California Legislature gives us more wonderful proof of your lack of support in the arts.... and cultural illiteracy.... For SHAmE! and it only took 5 years to get ba.art after I requested it.... EHmmmm ... Like I said.... Geeks Cultural Illiterates..... Let me know when you change the world.... Art is in and Armegedon is out boys.... The following frmo CA Lawyers for the Arts Newsletter - Artistic License Volume 7 No. 1.... "California now ranks 46th in per capita spending on the arts _ at 36 cents per person. While New York recently increased its Arts Council budget to over 40 Million, the budget for the California Arts Council is only 12.7 million. Senator Adam B Schiff, Chair of the Joint Committee on the Arts, has intorduced Senate Bill 1373, calling for an investment of at least 1$ per capita in the arts. This proposed increase n the budget for the California Arts Council, to 35 million, recognizes the critical fole of the arts and evtyertainment in the states economic activity in California. The arts generate ove 2 billion in annual economic activity in California" and every dollar spent on te arts turns t 20.00 back to the commmunity. Ehhhmmm Geeks ? Got your attention did I .... Pholcatscratch ? (Who anyway...is gonna buy those art computers all you people are making ? Ask all those who got laid off at SGI maybe ? Right ?)
