Talk:Taos, New Mexico
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What can you tell me about the Toas "Hum?" Do people still "hear it?" Is there any web place that will tell me about it?
Ashley: The University of New Mexico wasted $100,000 years ago on the claims of a few eccentric members of the town to see if they could document/record the hum. They couldn't. No one I personally consider reliable was among those who claimed to hear it. Quite a few people in town have seen or heard various other strange things over the years, though, and the general agreement among some is that the weapons testing labs in the state (Los Alamos and Sandia) are the cause. Again, no proof. Just giving you some old local gossip.
[edit] Influential artists
I'm not going to pull Bill Rane a second time but he should go. While it's possible he'd make top 10 Taos artists (especially when excluding visisting artists like O'Keeffe and Ansel Adams), I wouldn't consider him top 5, even contemporary, and this isn't a survey of Taos artists anyway. Listing him leads me to wonder whether or not the editor is a friend or owns one of his paintings. --Ashley 06:30, 16 March 2007 (UTC) (Former art critic for "The Taos News")
- Not involved in any way, just trying to keep w/ NPOV. The justification for removing and replacing that was not enough. Perhaps producing a list would make it more encompassing. Mikieminnow 14:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
