27. This news today sure seems to me an example of what class warfare is:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/14/president-obama-in-chicag_n_849080.html?du

First, Obama will deliver remarks at a $5,000 to $15,000-per-plate fundraiser at N9NE Steakhouse. He might not stay for dinner, however, since he is scheduled to speak at MK Restaurant at 7:35 p.m. The MK fundraiser costs a whopping a $35,800-per-person and 312 Dining Diva's Audarshia Townsend reports that the president will stay for dinner there.

A sample of the menu:

Hors d'oeurvres Lobster griddled maine lobster sandwiches
Perch
sweet water organics farm raised perch, Fish Bar tartar sauce
Steak
Tallgrass beef tartare, parmigiano-reggiano
Dinner
Maine salmon
black pepper & tarragon demi-cured maine salmon, asparagus, shaved fennel, preserved lemon emulsion
Scallops/short ribs
seared maine diver sea scallops, rosemary braised short ribs, parsnip puree, roasted carrots

p.s. neat picture. Is this going to become a garden spot? Between heavy rain showers, I've been digging up grass to plant more edibles.
