OT - Glass Pipes - if you're not offended, look at this art!
 

I was inspired by an earlier thread post to go look up pipes again. Who
cares what they're used for - look at these gorgeous works of art!!

And some galleries inside the site I really loved:

I had just seen an article in a magazine about "Glass Outlaws: Pipe Blowers
Under Fire". Serendipity.

don't be tempted to go there-- our Dear Mr. Ashcroft has a "thing" about the
industry -- and is aiming to shut it down... "art" notwithstanding......

Just look what happened to "colorchangingglass.com" and other sites last year
--
(for example
http://www.usdoj.gov/dea/pubs/pressrel/pr022403.html )
I saw a board post recently where he was trying to sell the name - but the site
is gone... - because the legal problems got pretty deep.

I don't know how the DEA is distinguishing between businesses - and how the
other sites keep going.....
other than the fact that this is a "gallery" and the items are not actually
"for sale."

The text that appeared on the targeted sites was:

"By application of the United States Drug Enforcement Administration,
the website you are attempting to visit has been restrained by the
United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania
pursuant to Title 21, United States Code, Section 853(e)(1)(A)."

Wouldn't you think our government has better things to do than this???
