    @dc-united: The grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale. #flamegate

    You are in front of a blinding white tear in the fabric of the night.

    C:\ enter light

    You are surrounded by brilliance unimaginable to your mortal mind and you crap your pants in awe. The otherworldly harmonies of Radiohead are filling your ears with audio ghosts.

    I'd be wondering why whatever supernatural force responsible for the crack in the fabric of our known reality would be so sloppy as to make it an ominous craggy orifice into the unknown, rather than a nice rectangle, or even semicircle.

    Then I'd go in. What the hell. #flamegate

    @Kaiser-Machead: Perhaps the supernatural (or merely "advanced") force responsible finds asymmetry appealing? If so, our bilateral symmetry might offend them mightily. Best to hack your face up a bit, first, just to be sure. #flamegate

    First, I would piss my pants. Then I would inspect the light from afar to try to figure out what it was. If I can't figure it out from that distance, I would run away, screaming like a 7th grade girl who just saw the Jonas Brothers murdered. #flamegate

    In reply to The Living Light Sculpture
    It's gorgeous, and bizarrely informative (or informatively bizarre?)... but what the hell is its purpose? The Living Light article just calls it a "project". Best I can come up with is art installation to keep people thinking about how they're impacting their local air quality? It's also good for long-term data collection, I guess.

    Seems kinda silly as a daily warning system. People normally have shit to do in certain neighborhoods, so they can't just say, "Oh, air quality's bad in that area today, I guess I won't go," or, "Hey, air quality's bitchin' uptown, think I'll check that out!" Weekends would be another matter, I guess. #livinglight
