The I.O.W St Mary's Koan: Waste of money?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Public Art : One Thread

In light of the recent instalation of the St Mary's 'Land Sea Light koan', we have seen a large response from the general population of the island. This response has been largely negative and the Koan has been quoted as "an outrage" and "a waste of money". What do you think? was the #55,000 price tag justified?, Is it art at all?, Do you think the residents are justified, or unreasonable? Any comments would be greatfully recieved.
