1. How about if we put the Wisconsin capitol damage at zero?
Edited on Sun Mar-06-11 04:57 PM by Lasher


State officials on Friday distanced themselves from Thursday estimates of over $7 million to clean up the Capitol, but the concerns remain about the tape used to attach posters to walls and the effect it may have had on marble.

Many of the papers and banners posted in the statehouse were put up using painter's tape, which is employed to minimize effects on walls. Stephans said Friday he had ordered that tape sent to the Capitol during the demonstrations to minimize effects on the building.

On Friday, some of the tape and fliers had already been removed. In one second-floor hallway at least, no perceptible damage to the marble appeared where the tape had been removed.

I have seen nothing to indicate that anyone has found any actual damage whatever.
