I agree, the work on the site to me is not much more than snapshots 
from a third world country. Most here in the USA simply have never 
seen these kind of conditions for themselves and consider it "ART" 
when seen in this form. All who think that it is art should buy a 
ticket and visit there. Try India, or Angolia or the slums of South 
America. It makes you appreciate living as we do, it's still not Art 
though.
