The title of the globe is:
7 DAYS * 36 FAMILIES * 100 POUNDS
This refers back to the begining of this project and the collection of the junk mail I used to create the globe. I realized that with restarting the globe THREE (YES 3) times, I covered the surface of the sphere at least twelve times and did NOT use all the junk mail that was collected.
***FYI: The surface area of the globe is roughly 80 SQ. FT. ***

Hey!
I noticed that over the last several months you blogged often about Cool
Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet - the innovative public art project in
Chicago that represented simple solutions to global warming. Starting
Monday, November 26 for one week only, select large and mini-globes from the
Cool Globes exhibit in Chicago will be auctioned to raise funds for the
Chicago Conservation Corp Clubs, which provide environmental education
opportunities for Chicago’s youth.
Among the globes to be auctioned are mini-globes from:
* Bill Clinton
* Robert Redford
* David Schwimmer
* Tobey Maguire
* Eva Mendes
* Rob Corddry
* Jenny Lennon and the cast of “Reno 911”
* Magic Johnson
* Dave Winfield
* Chicago Bear Tommie Harris
* Tony Bennett
* BB King
* Heather Headley
* The Gypsy Kings
The auction will take place online, hosted by eBay, so that even those who
don't live in or around Chicago can make an offer. You can view globes or
place a bid in the online auction at www.coolglobes.org.
I thought your blog readers might be interested in learning more. Please
feel free to reply with any questions and I hope you'll consider writing
about this. Thanks!
