Artist imitates life

Last year at my primary blog I made up a joke about George W. Bush wanting to make artificial ice floes for polar bears out of garbage -- a transparent excuse to dump American garbage in the oceans.

Now it seems some people think fake ice habitat for bears is a good idea. Seattle artist Susan Robb has gotten a lot of publicity for her work on the idea.

No word on what the bears will eat after the seals learn to stay away from the Hummer-shaped platforms, or how the bears will get back to land when it's time to hibernate. Nice out of the box thinking, though
