You know, those paintings where Andrew Jackson and Woodrow Wilson are hanging out with Obama and Nixon, Reagan and Teddy Roosevelt are sharing a huge laugh at some joke apparently told by Abe Lincoln.

I just don't want this thing branded as anything officially U.S. Government sponsored. Like IG says, put it on Route 66 near the Alligator Farm and Meremec Caverns.

I suggest it be built along I-70 in western Kansas. It'd be great shot in the arm to the local economy. The locals can ring it with gas stations as tchotchke bodegas. Perhaps the local tribe could install a bank or two of slots. There could be one of those "Mystery Spots" or vertigo houses. Hell, maybe a go cart track. Certainly a few pirate-themed putt-putt courses.

Then you could have billboards stretching a 100 miles in either direction, of the Meramec Caverns and "See Rock City!" variety.
