What's the United States' most well known symbol? It's the Statue of Liberty which was built in France from 1876 to 1886, and shipped across the Atlantic to New York Harbor.

So, what's wrong with building an Old Man of the Mountain and installing it onto its' old spot high up top of Cannon Cliff? If the US can successfully have a statue then why can't NH have a designer built Old Man?

Picture this: An Old Man designed with a powerfull sound system and eyes that light up, all wired up to a 20-dollar, play-a-song selector down next to Profile Lake. For twenty bucks, a tourist visiter could chose from 100's different songs and amp up the volume for miles around with Frank Sinatra doing "Strangers in the Night...dooby...dooby...doo" while the Old Man's eyes goes brite blue and roll around, up top the cliff.

Picture that! That would put New Hampshire back on the tourist map!
