[UA] Postcards from a *real* edge....

This one is brilliant:

"Katie Wong, 16, of Germantown, found the first bottle in mid-May. She was 
picking up trash around the lake when she saw it drifting in the cove to the 
left of the boathouse.

"I thought it was pretty cool," she said, "because it was so weird."

Wong said a friend of hers thought the bottles possibly had something to do 
with voodoo. She said her friend, who has studied voodoo, told her that the 
keys, the stamps and the hand trapped in the bottle were symbolic of keeping 
two lovers apart.

But Janie Inglis, who owns The Walnut Tree, a Wiccan store in Gaithersburg, 
looked at pictures of the bottles posted on the Internet and concluded that 
they were not voodoo-related.

"There does not seem to be anything 'magical' in nature to these photos," 
Inglis wrote in an e-mail. "Rather they seem to be artistic expression, even 
performance art. Instead of a performance by the artist, the performance is 
created by the audience. ... [T]he reactions of the audience have been 
curiosity, fear (i.e. voodoo curse) and more. Like the artist says, 'The 
answer will only change the question.'"

No PoMoMa to see here, just move along...
