Hopping on Facebook today has been strangely heartbreaking because of this.
As far as I can tell, there are exactly two acceptable scenarios for the disappearance of Poet's Table:
1. Forest fire, because there's no ultimate control there.
2. A park decision. I'd be pissed about that, but as they are the official landowners, they would ultimately have the right to pull things out. (And in theory, would be willing to preserve the history of the area in an appropriate fashion.)
This, though?
This is just plain wrong. Besides being confusing as hell, it goes against the very idea of the table itself as a peaceful destination in the woods. At the heart of things, it's disrespectful, shortsighted, and just plain mean.
