[Updated] A message in Tompkins Square Park



EVG correspondent Steven spotted this earlier today in Tompkins Square Park... someone left an anti-war recording on a tree using three plastic cups as a holder as well an amplifier for the sound...



The device remains in place as of this afternoon, though the recording has stopped...

Updated 6:30

Steven spotted a second homemade speaker... this one is no longer working either...

    not to be a prig but won't these disturb the hawk families? i'm all for the concept but maybe not in the middle of the park?

    @not-a-prig: If it was put up by squirrels (and the placement indicates strongly that that is exactly what happened), then disturbing the hawks might have been exactly their purpose.

    It's a jungle out there.
