Here's a little fact about myself : I LOVE to recycle - yet this scuffle could be taking things a tad bit far...
Tina Asmus of Lakemoor, Ill. is a fellow recycing-lover, (and it shows). According to this AP story, Asmus revamped two old toilets and a pedestal sink into clever little planters for assorted "daisies, angel's breath, lilies, and other flowers."
Asmus calls these 'johns' her "art pieces", and will not be removing them.
Officials of Lakemoor have asked Asmus to remove the planters within a month's time or face a fine ranging anywhere from $25 to $500.
Question: Is this really that big of a deal? How 'green' is TOO 'green'? Should Asmus have to remove her 'art', for the town-reputation's sake?
