MISSING, PRESUMED LOST
The NSCAD box is gone. I went back on Monday morning and it was no longer on the tree. I asked buildings and grounds and checked the lost and found with no luck. I ran into a woman who said she'd put in suggestions the night before and at that point it was sitting on a bench in the court yard. Who knows where it went in the night, but just in case anyone reading this has it, please leave a comment and I will come and fetch it from you. I'd like to have it back, and I'd really like to see the suggestions.

Halifax Commons
Stolen
(by the city!)
I went to check this box today, but alas, the city had already taken it down. I was on my way to a dentist appointment on the bus when I saw a city worker in a neon vest walking over to it. It was there then, but by the time I made it back it was gone. I checked all the garbage cans in the park.
I guess it must have pissed someone off, it didn't even last 24hrs. Heaven forbid someone has anything to SAY about the commons. You know, especially the city royaly screwed it up with the stones concert so now you can't even walk through a large section of the so called "Common Land" because it's fenced off.
I asked a guy who was sleeping/camping out under the tree if he had seen anything, but he had been asleep.
You know, it's bad enough that the city has "visually silenced" me, but what really sucks is that friends of mine SAW people putting suggestions in the box, it was a well trafficed spot and now those suggestions are gone. Silenced as well and FAST. (If you are one of those people, please leave a comment and I will add it to the suggestions. If you are feeling really adventurous you could find another location and drop in a copy.)
Conclusion: HRM sucks. No suggestions or comments allowed.
