Proof that Central Europe can still produce great political theater. Es lebe die Muellermachine!

(http://www.radio.cz/en/news/37117#6) "Neon Heart at Prague Castle turned off as Vaclav Havel's final term in office draws to a close Czech artist Jiri David's 'Neon Heart' that adorned Prague Castle for the last several months has been turned off as planned, to coincide with Vaclav Havel's final days as president of the Czech Republic. The large neon heart, echoing Mr Havel's signature trademark and inspired by Mr Havel's ideals, was turned off on Friday evening. The heart had dominated Prague's historic skyline provoking almost endless debate among the Czech public over its artistic value. There was more 'controversy' on the heart's 'final day', when Greenpeace representatives hung a banner near the structure protesting possible military action against Iraq."
