I wonder at the ramifications I so narrowly avoided. Do you think that people who've never seen it were still affected?The fellow in my image dealt with fortifications, not ramifications. People did see it and were not affected, because they went around it. Hopefully this helps you answer your own question.
BTW, I like the sig. "Some rare bits of brain lie here...'
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
