Artist Norm Magnusson is developing The I-75 Project.
I believe he's a serious professional artist, since he got paid $2,000 to paint one of those fiberglass cows they displayed around NYC.
Quote:
Interstate-75 begins in Sault St Marie, Michigan on the Canadian border. After leaving Michigan, it doesn’t touch another blue state. It’s 1,775 miles from top to bottom with about 50 rest stops.
The I-75 Project would place historical markers with social and political content in each of these rest stops.
My goal is not to incite, but to inspire thought amongst those who travel on this route.

Here's a sample...
Personally, I think if he actually does this, the signs won't stay up long.
The Interstate Highway rest stops are usually pretty heavily patrolled, and if they have rest rooms, maintenance people
are either there, or visit at least once a day.
There's a very good chance he'll get his ass arrested.
