Call It In The Air
1/25/2

My NASA contact wrote in and said this:

I read your stuffo about the design of the Alabama quarter. You may be interested to know that the Quarter Act forbids a head and shoulders portrait or bust of anyone, living or dead. You could, however, have MLK in a scene such as a freedom march, in the same way that North Carolina showed the Wright Brothers flying their plane. Or I guess you could have Wallace standing in a doorway. :P

And he included this link:

It makes sense not to have a two headed quarter.

"Call it..."

"Uh....the guy who isn't George."
