The misspellings pull people away from her work and to that critical area of editing--and I don't think that's what she wants her work to do

I agree, Wordwind.

But this artist has inadvertently done more for the cause of literacy [and good spelling] than any other artist in the land, I fathom.

This mural will end up on every blackboard in the country, thanks to this artist. Her name will go down in pedogogic history.

$6,000 is a very cheap price to have the artist come back and correct her spelling mistakes under the glare of all this censorious publicity.

Whoever is behind this muralgate deserves the "Librarian of the Year Award".

"And a library, no less."

Yes, "no less" and "none better" ... except the wall of a public school, perhaps.
