I wonder why they would chjoose something like this. I had a friend who dis some art for a mental instituion and most of her pieces were rejected because they might be too disturbing to some patients.

The slot at the bottom enables a staff member to slide a tray of food into the room without the client inside having to grab it and set it down. They could provide food for them when they are not yet ready to eat but it would be there if they wanted it later.

Motts, I have surely enjoyed every picture that you have on this site...I am not a picture lover of any sort, I came up on your web site when I was searching for pics of the Mole People in New York. I did not find what I originally was looking for, but I have became addicted to your pictures, the stories that are behind! I have traveled quite a bit since I joined the Air Force in 1998 and I have always thought that all the wonderful things that I see should be photographed. Your site has give me new insight into how wonderful a picture can be!

Joe, some of these people may be semi-illiterate, and maybe didn't grasp the concept of "words dont always spell the way they sound" or something. Creepy and eerie shot though...good job...
