[edit] Deletion of previous stub

The previous stub i created was deleted summarily, i assume because the stub did not clearly make the case for the importance of the relatively unknown eigner. i've tried in this stub to make the importance of his influence more evident and do not think this article qualifies for deletion.JFQ 23:58, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Do not delete

Thanks JFQ. An article was needed. JFQ is right on the mark. DO NOT DELETE. There needs to be an Eigner page. Just look at all the "What links here" in the toolbox. His importance cannot be underestimated. Also, he deserves a longer article. He's a great poet who HAPPENED TO BE handicapped (and not the other way around, if you get my drift...we're not celebrating his handicap, but his artistic integrity). His story needs telling. I was going to create an Eigner article to link to, but I'm glad it's here.

Stay tuned. I have some more interesting and relevant things to add, including future Eigner publications, that will further (posthumously) his legacy Christian Roess 03:19, 7 April 2006 (UTC)
