	Martymizuno Dag gum! Those things are more baffling than the poison sign.

	Martymizuno Has anyone imagined how much more we puny little humans could accomplish if we didn't have to eat or sleep?!?

	Martymizuno If you had a thin arm and wrist, you could reach up the shute fairly easy and maneuver one can at a time out. Bottles were much trickier. Nowadays, you need a bomb.

	Martymizuno Not boring in the least, fofmer resident. Quite the contrary.

	Martymizuno What's with the incredibly preserved ceiling in this shot, Motts??!! And the floor tiles too??!! These were either put down by some real pros or the place is pretty weather resistant. Or both.

	Martymizuno The sad truth is...Worcester State Hospital was one of the greatest American architectural structures of all time. To see her in person, stripped of her wings, is depressing for the purist. But at the same time, thankful for what is left.

	Martymizuno Thanks for the great info Alex. This place is an absolute gem! Her strong and beautiful sandstone body will stand tall for centuries. Barring you know what.

	Martymizuno Indeed a wonderful shot, Motts. A rare carpet photo to boot.

	Martymizuno Excellent find, Motts!

	Martymizuno Lynne, WOW! You might be right. I definitely respect your opinion. Kirkbrides are my favorite buildings and to choose a "Grand Daddy" or an "Above the rest," that's just way too tough. I will say Buffalo State, Worcester, and Greystone are up there with Danvers architecturally.

	Martymizuno I'm a fan of this.

	Martymizuno Bill, Are you referring to "2001: A Space Odyssey?" No hard feelings to fans of this movie but I thought it was one of the most boring, overrated movies of all time! If anyone hasn't seen it, good luck making it through the whole thing. Sorry, One of my weaknesses is getting pissed off at a movie. All the faithful asshats are saying, "Marty, It's a movie. Get over it!"

	Martymizuno Background is perfect.

	Martymizuno Excellent pose. Excellent black and white.

	Martymizuno I know they put the "grip strip" on the stairs for safety but it sure does tarnish the beauty of the marble.
